Manda Collins

Manda Collins spent her teen years wishing she'd been born a couple ofcenturies earlier, preferably in the English countryside. Time travel beingwhat it is, she resigned herself to life with electricity and indoorplumbing, and read lots of books. An affinity for books led to a graduatedegree in English, followed by another in Librarianship. By day, she worksas an academic librarian at a small liberal arts college, where she teachescollege students how to navigate the tangled world of academic research. Anative of coastal Alabama, Manda lives in the house her mother grew up inwith two cats, two dogs, sometimes her sister, and always more books thanstrictly necessary.
