My name is Huckleberry Rahr. I am a mathematics instructor from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. I grew up with lesbian moms who inspired my love of reading. My mom had a huge collection of women authors with heroines as the protagonist. My favorite genre was fantasy and science fiction, that is, until I discovered urban fantasy. What my mom's library lacked were books with characters that looked like my family: diverse in background, gender identity, and sexuality. I decided if I couldn't find that series, I would write it.
