About
Since she was a child, B. B. Arbogast has loved myth, the occult, and the macabre. An interest in her German heritage gave her a way to learn the language while living and working in Germany. She wrote an unconventional memoir, a few short stories, and is in the process of writing novels for a variety of audiences, ranging from early middle grade to adult, in multiple genres, including magical realism and horror. A member of multiple writing groups, she currently works at a local independent bookstore and is responsible for the children’s section. She lives in Reno, Nevada, with her husband and two dogs.
