Charity Tahmaseb has slung corn on the cob for Green Giant and jumped out of airplanes (but not at the same time). A Girl Scout of twelve years, a Girl Scout leader for ten, and a U. S. Army veteran, she's spent a lot of time wearing green. After a career in technical writing, she now writes full-time, focusing on fantasy and speculative fiction. Her work ranges from novels to flash fiction, with stories appearing in markets like Pulp Literature, where her novel The Pansy Paradox won the First Page Cage Match.
Her debut novel, The Geek Girl's Guide to Cheerleading (co-authored with Darcy Vance), was a YALSA Popular Paperback pick in the Get Your Geek On category. She still blogs like it's 2005 at https://writingwrongs.blog. Darcy Vance is the slacker half of the author duo of Charity Tahmaseb and Darcy Vance. She didn't start writing seriously until she was 40, and didn't publish her first novel until she was 50.
Even then, she needed a co-author to get the job done. While Charity was busy slinging corn for Green Giant and jumping out of airplanes for the Army, Darcy was busy making out with boys and perfecting the art of the doodle. She only makes out with one boy now (her husband) but she still doodles wantonly. Her first novel, The Geek Girl's Guide to Cheerleading (written with go-getter Charity Tahmaseb), was a YALSA 2012 Popular Paperback pick in the Get Your Geek On category.
