Today we're welcoming the next of our new contributors to the flock: Haley Zapal.
Haley Zapal is a lawyer-turned-copywriter who lives in Atlanta, Georgia. She has no memory of watching Star Wars for the first time — it’s always been a part of her consciousness. By 12 she was immersed in the Expanded Universe and writing her first novella-length fanfic. As an adult, she enjoys movies and books about space, and pondering if the speed of light really is the universe’s speed limit. She does not like fantasy, mainly because of all the horses.NERD SPECIALIZATION(S): Star Wars, post-apocalyptic fiction, the Locked Tomb trilogy
