title: The Guardian's Grimoire
author:  Rain Oxford 
description: Rain Oxford is a teacher who has been writing for more than half of her life. The Asian-influenced cultures she creates were inspired by Japan, where she attended Ritsumeikan University in Kyoto. She does most of her writing in a secluded cabin in the woods with a four-pound Maltese as a companion. When she's not teaching or creating worlds, she usually enjoys cooking, playing the piano, or photographing exotic wildlife.
