Hi everyone!
I'm Mason Lavin (or at least that's what I go by here.... *wraps self in cloak of mystery!)
I live in North Carolina with my four cats. Occasionally my boyfriend stops by, too. He and the cats get along, thank God. I spent some time in Ohio in grad school (go Bucks!!) and I grew up in California, in Bakersfield, to be specific. I'm an English professor, a medievalist by trade, though I teach at a small college so I do a lot of composition.
Here at Breathless I'm an editor. I've been editing since earlier this year. I really enjoy it. I find working with authors challenging, interesting, and a lot of fun.
I love to read fantasy and science fiction and that's what I write too. I've been minimally published (that is one short story in a paying market, and a couple other almost-published!) I'm working on two novels now, one on my own and one with a co-author. Both are in the fantasy realm, though they are both pretty different. (One's about faeries, the other demons.)
So, that's about it for me! I'm looking forward to getting to know you all!
--Mason
