P. J. (Tricia) Hoover wanted to be a Jedi, but when that didn''t work out, she became an electrical engineer instead. After a fifteen year bout designing computer chips for a living, P. J. started creating worlds of her own. She''s the award-winning author of Tut: The Story of My Immortal Life, featuring a fourteen-year-old King Tut who''s stuck in middle school, and Solstice, a super-hot twist on the Hades/Persephone myth. When not writing, P. J. spends time with her husband and two kids and enjoys practicing kung fu, solving Rubik''s cubes, and watching Star Trek. For more information about P. J. (Tricia) Hoover, please visit her website www.pjhoover.com.
