ABOUT ARIELE SIELING
For those of you that are in a hurry, here is a short version of my About Me in haiku form:
I am Ariele
I write books and carry ducks
My two cats are weird
For those of you who have a little more time or want to know a bit more about me, here are a few more details.
I have dozens of books published: more about them here.
If you want to financially support my work (and get some fun insider info), you can find me over on Patreon.
I do not own the ducks—my parents own the ducks.
I have lived in NY (upstate), NC, NH, MD, and now am in PA.
I like to plant things.
I like to volunteer! I spent two years working at a soup kitchen and still manage their website; facilitated a writers group’ for a retirement association for two years; taught English as a second language for one year; volunteered for a Baltimore-based literary non-profit; fostered cats; and currently volunteer for Appalachian Great Pyrenees Rescue.
My coworkers are absurdly ineffective.
Terry Pratchett is my favorite author (along with Douglas Adams, Diana Wynne Jones, Trudi Canavan, Neil Gaiman, Tamora Pierce, Zoe Cannon, and Carl Sagan).
I have two brothers, two parents, one grandparent, two cats, one dog, and one spouse.
I tried to write this page in alliterative prose and failed. This is as far as I got: "Being brainy, bright, and brilliant from birth, I wasted no week; I began building works, writing word after word for burgeoning books."
Not all of my writing costs money! Here are some links:
