Emily Pearson lives in Tucson, AZ and has pulled nearly 351 cactus spines out of her shins. She graduated from the University of Arizona with a B.A. in English and Creative Writing against the better judgment of her parents, friends, and acquaintances who would ask, "What's your major?" and then look crestfallen when informed. Her work has been published in magazines, blogs, and newsletters and encompasses various writing styles: journalistic, humorous, academic, creative, and poetic. She is your word-chameleon with eagle eyes.
