Julie Jones

I grew up in northeast Oklahoma in a tiny town of 1,400 people, and now happily reside not too far away in a lovely college town. In my heart I am a simple country girl, but I harbor a deep and abiding love of all things scientific and fantastic. I find speculations on the interior of Jupiter to be just as interesting as the latest advances in home canning. I love to cook and make my own things, including everything from laundry soap to ranch dressing. Music is vital to my status as a functioning adult, and I love everything from AC/DC to Mozart to the Wu Tang Clan. I am married to the greatest human being I have ever met, and we have two ridiculously intelligent and adorable kids. I have my own signature brand of nuttiness, as all interesting people do.
