Laurie Fairchild’s debut novel, Never Only, asks the question: how would Mother Nature feel about our current climate reality, and what might she be inclined to do about it? With the insight only a habitat and wildlife biologist can bring to these questions, Laurie Fairchild leads the reader on a wild ride with humor, poignancy, and the highest stakes imaginable.

Micaela Myers began writing poems before she could write herself, appearing at her mother’s bedside, chanting, “I’ve got a poem, I’ve got a poem!” After earning her bachelor’s degree in English, she went on to pursue an MFA in writing from Vermont College of Fine Arts. After graduation, she garnered publications in many literary journals, including the Mississippi Review online, Boston Literary Magazine, Short Story, Paper Street, and Spire.

A simultaneous submission accepted to City Works San Diego taught Micaela a hard lesson when famed writer Amy Tan later wanted to publish it in the L.A. Times magazine fiction section. Micaela’s stories also took first place in the River Oak Review’s fiction contest and Binnacle’s Ultra-Short Competition.

In her day job, Micaela is an award-winning magazine editor and the author of three equestrian books.
