J.Z. Weston writes short stories and reviews novellas, with a soft spot for contemporary/urban fantasy. They are particularly fascinated by the ways that stories help us figure out how to be human. You can count on them to have too many projects on their knitting needles, too many stories in process at the same time, and more ideas that any one person could ever hope to implement.
They have worked as a librarian, a book seller, a historical interpreter, a life coach, and a freelance writer. They were born in New York, but fled for Boston as soon as they were able to, and have lived by the Charles River ever since.
