  Hailey Edwards writes about questionable applications of otherwise perfectly
  good magic, the transformative power of love, the family you choose for
  yourself, and blowing stuff up. Not necessarily all at once. That could get
  messy. She lives in Alabama with her husband, their daughter, and a herd of
  dachshunds.
