About admin

My name is Cat Rambo. I am a science fiction and fantasy writer. A list of my publications appears at http://www.kittywumpus.net that includes Fantasy Magazine, Strange Horizons, Subterranean, and Clarkesworld. A former tech writer for the Visual Basic team at Microsoft, I have also worked in the information security field and still do some technology writing on a freelance basis. I run an online game, Armageddon MUD, which I have been working with for about fifteen years now. I am Sanvean on there and have written a couple of articles about it and gaming in general, as well as reams of game documentation. I am politically leftist and ardently feminist, hoping for the arrival of the post-capitalist age, but in a Waiting for Godot sort of way. I believe in peace and kindness and treating the earth with the love and respect that entity deserves. These convictions are often mirrored in my writing, which often circles around feminist and animal rights issues.
