Cat Rambo's Journal

Name:
Cat Rambo
Birthdate:
14 November 1963
Cat Rambo is an F&SF writer and editor. Find her fiction at http://www.kittywumpus.net/blog/fiction/

John Barth described Cat Rambo's writings as "works of urban mythopoeia" -- her stories take place in a universe where chickens aid the lovelorn, Death is just another face on the train, and Bigfoot gives interviews to the media on a daily basis. She has worked as a programmer-writer for Microsoft and a Tarot card reader, professions which, she claims, both involve a certain combination of technical knowledge and willingness to go with the flow.

In 2005 she attended the Clarion West Writers' Workshop and in 2007 Taos Toolbox. She is a member of the Codex Writers' Group as well as Horrific Miscue - Seattle Branch. Among the places in which her stories have appeared are ASIMOV'S, WEIRD TALES, CLARKESWORLD, and STRANGE HORIZONS, garnering mentions and appearances in year's best of anthologies. She is a board member with Broad Universe and a volunteer with Clarion West.

In 2005, her collaboration with Jeff VanderMeer, THE SURGEON'S TALE AND OTHER STORIES, was published (http://www.amazon.com/Surgeons-Tale-Cat-Rambo/dp/0809572680). In 2007, her collection EYES LIKE SKY AND COAL AND MOONLIGHT appeared from Paper Golem Press (http://www.amazon.com/Eyes-Like-Sky-Coal-Moonlight/dp/097953495X). The book was a 2010 Endeavour Award finalist. She is represented by Ginger Clark of Curtis Brown Ltd.
