About the author

Anjuelle Floyd is a wife of forty-three years, mother, grandmother, licensed psychotherapist, painter, writer and doctoral candidate in Integral and Transpersonal Psychology. A student of cultures, relationships, and dreams, she weaves all three into her short stories and novels. When not traveling the world, she makes her home in the San Francisco Bay Area. Floyd credits her love for books and even greater love for writing to the time she spent in her Granny’s house as a child and teenager. A lover of the written word herself, her Granny had amassed a collection of books and magazines that, while Floyd now knows it to have been small, says she felt was very large at the time. She would spend many hours curled up on the floor in front of the case that held them and diligently leaf through their captivating pages. “This was all great preparation for writing. My grandmother also told me stories about her family, most of whom were deceased. She gave me a great love for family, family connections and stories.” It is this love that Floyd passes along through her own written words.
