Autorenporträt

Barbara Thompson was a commercial and fine art photographer with a studio in S.O.M.A., South of Market, in San Francisco for several years. She holds a B.F.A. and an M.F.A. in fine art photography and has photographs included in the Permanent Collection at the SF Museum of Modern Art. Her visual training and her love of reading fiction got her started imagining how scenes might be described in a book. Although still a devotee of Adobe Photoshop, she now spends most of her time creating her characters and scenes, which she imagines in her stories. Barbara believes that "seeing" her character step into a world of long-ago that she has created is the best part. Then, adding a bit of "magic" to that character's life helps bring the story alive.
