About the Author

Venus Reising is the alter ego of a writing duo out of Central Florida. The literary twosome is one-half professor, with poetry and criticism published in numerous journals, including Ascent Aspirations Magazine and Atlantic Literary Review, and one-half working artist turned pre-med student, who has, at least for now, traded her canvas for a periodic table. Partners in writing and in life, the Venus women would much rather interrogate characters and complicate plots than do just about anything else.
