Biography
Heather Rose Jones writes fantasy, historic fantasy, and historical fiction, including the Alpennia series with swordswomen and magic in an alternate Regency setting. She blogs about research into lesbian-like motifs in history and literature at the Lesbian Historic Motif Project which provides inspiration for her fiction. She has a PhD in linguistics, studying metaphor theory and the semantics of Medieval Welsh prepositions, and works as an industrial failure investigator in biotech.
She was born into an academic family. She has lived at various times in three of the four corners of the continental US as well as three European countries and has recently been startled to realize that she has lived in her current SF Bay Area house longer than any other single place. She has a BS in zoology, spent a decade in medical research, went back to school for a PhD in linguistics (specializing in Medieval Welsh prepositions), and has now returned to biotech in various capacities.
If you're in the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA), you may know her as Tangwystyl verch Morgant Glasvryn.
