Probably because she grew up in New Mexico, where she learned to write in between tarantula turf wars and apocalyptic dust storms. Courtney’s work can be found in print and on your favorite podcatcher.
(She’s also a singer-songwriter, dog whisperer, recovering academic, vegan cooking enthusiast, and lots more. But you’re probably here for the writing thing.) If you want to learn more about Courtney, check out the About page. If you’d rather just start reading or listening (wouldn’t we all?), let me point you to:
“H&D Plumbing.” Fireside Fiction Magazine (2017).
“The piece points to a secular kind of faith, one that allows [the characters] to deal with what happens while not claiming at some moral superiority. They simply have the skills required for this service, and so they use them to make their living … So yeah, a refreshing and fun piece that was a blast to read!”

“A Post-Modern Oracle.” Fireside Fiction Magazine (2018).
“The piece is rather fun and funny, featuring a mesh of ancient power and modern (or post-modern) twists. The story illustrates a change in not only perspective but values from the stories about the old oracles, where fighting against prophecy means a person is doomed. This is a story that has learned from those older tales and taken a much different approach to fate and pride.”
