S4 Ep18 - Gretchen Kuykendall Engel

Back in the day, Gretchen E K Engel enjoyed penning her English teacher's favorite essays as much as earning highest marks in physics. But science won over the arts, and Gretchen pursued a career as a chemical engineer. Her love of the written word was not neglected as she authored hundreds of technical documents including such riveting works as Spill Prevention, Controls and Countermeasure Plans and Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans. She lives in Tucson with her husband, her daughter aka Young Realmie, and her extroverted tuxedo cat, plus a college-aged son across town. Ms. Engel enjoys playing tennis, biking, hiking, traveling, or lying on a pool float doing nothing. An environmental consultant by day and speculative fiction writer by night, Gretchen researches STEM characters in a professional setting and gets paid to do it. She has published short stories in anthologies and magazines. Her manuscript The Barber Surgeon won the ACFW Genesis Award for speculative fiction.   Havok Legendary Anthology: https://amzn.to/4frjSGM Stalk Gretchen on Instagram: Instagram.com/GretchenEKEngel    Join us on Twitch!
