Linda Maye Adams was probably the least likely person to be in the Army-even the Army thought so! She was an enlisted soldier and served for twelve years and was one of the women who deployed to Desert Storm. But she'd much prefer her adventures to be in books. She is the author of the military-based GALCOM Universe series, including the novels Crying Planet and Lonely Planet. She's also received three honorable mentions in the Writers of the Future contest and an honorable mention in Alfred Hitchcock Magazine's contest. Linda is a native of Los Angeles, California, and currently lives in Northern Virginia. Find out more about Linda Maye Adams on her website at http://www.lindamayeadams.com.
