Lee Martindale

Lee Martindale believes in enjoying life, making a difference, and writing good stories.  Evidence that she does all three can be found in numerous venues ranging from three SWORD AND SORCERESS volumes, through multiple Yard Dog Press projects, to Esther Friesner’s TURN THE OTHER CHICK.  She’s edited a groundbreaking anthology (SUCH A PRETTY FACE), released a CD of original filk music (THE LADIES OF TRADE TOWN) and an audiochapbook CD (TO STAND AS WITNESS: THREE ARTHURIAN TALES). Her latest works include PREJUDICE BY THE POUND, a collection of essays and editorials from ten years of Rump Parliament Magazine, and stories in CATOPOLIS, WITCH WAY TO THE MALL, WARRIOR WISEWOMAN 2, and an upcoming vampires-in-the-suburbs anthology from Baen.  She’s also currently reading for THE LADIES OF TRADE TOWN, an anthology of genre stories on the world’s oldest profession she’s editing for an April 2011 release from Norilana Books.

When not slinging fiction, Lee is a Named Bard, Lifetime Active Member of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, a fencing member of the SFWA Musketeers, and a member of the SCA.  She and her husband George live in Plano, TX, where she shares news with friends and fans at http://www.HarpHaven.net
