Clarity A. Bast
@mavieenprose on TwitterThe Page On Words: A blog about writing, reading, graduate school, libraries, and books.
Clarity has been reading since she first curled up with her family's medical encyclopedia, thinking she liked that there were lots of pictures AND lots of words. Eventually, she transitioned to books that had actual plots. When she reached junior high, a school assignment helped her realize that she could be a writer, too. This blossomed into a love for the written word that led her to pursue her MFA in Creative Writing at UC Riverside.
When she's not writing her butt off, Clarity enjoys books at the snail's pace that is her reading speed. Sometimes she gets caught doing that when she's supposed to be shelving books at a library in Orange County. (But it's okay. Her co-workers are awesome.) She also likes to watch movies.
Clarity's writing tends toward fantasy (of all sorts) or magical realism. She has completed two novels and is currently at work on two more. Her ultimate dream is to become a librarian and have to find her own books for a patron.
