Shelly Mazzanoble’s short stories and essays have appeared in
The Seattle Times, Carve, Whetstone, Skirt!, SomeOtherMagazine.com, and
Dragon. In a fit of narcissism, she has appeared in her own work, casting herself as the lead in her play,
Blue Malls, which was produced in Seattle’s Mae West Fest XIII. Due to the anxiety dreams still plaguing her, she did not star, support or even understudy in her play,
The Chicken & the Egg, which was produced in Mae West Fest IV and later Manhattan Theatre Source’s Estrogenius Festival. Her book,
Confessions of a Part-Time Sorceress: A Girls Guide to the Dungeons and Dragons Game published by Wizards of the Coast, was nominated for both an
Origins Award and an
ENnies Award. Originally from Upstate New York, she now lives in Seattle.
