Rum Moreau is a history and creative writing student from Louisville, Kentucky. This is her first published fiction. When she is not exploring the past with the help of history books and Doctor Who episodes, she enjoys reading, collecting odd songs and information about life, the universe, and everything; and making peoples' days a little more surreal with her writing. Her fondness for mad science stems from a fascination with general strangeness fueled by travel, horror movies, and Gothic novels and their ilk. Doc Brown, Griffin the Invisible Man, and Captain Nemo are a few of her favorite mad scientists.
