Starfest 2008 Julia Phillips

Julia Phillips

Born in Texas, which most her friends have forgiven her for, Julia Phillips has lived in Longmont, Colorado for most of her life, but been in most everywhere else. While the B.S. in Biology she received isn’t doing her as much good as she planned, the research skills she learned have come in handy for her current projects, especially digging into medieval history and world mythology.

The second book in her series, Miranda, Queen of Argyll: Unlikely Saints, was published in September, answering the cliff-hanger ending of her first novel, Miranda, Queen of Argyll: Past Sins. Both books show that history will haunt you, gnomes can be funny, friends always have your back, and life can still surprise you, whether you’re immortal or not.

Something in the rarified air up here has her already working on her next projects, including a couple of screenplays, an anthology piece and the beginning of Miranda III. She also plans on releasing e-book versions of her series by the fall.

Right now, Julia is waiting on baseball season to start, hoping to catch the Rockies in action at Coors Field several times this season. Otherwise, she’ll catch them on her TV, while in front of her computer (isn’t that convenient?) with her most tolerant supporter, her cat Seuss.
