The Theory of Irrelativity

| Name: | Jennifer Trudeau |

| Bio: | I'm Native American (Mohawk, from Six Nations), with a BA from U-Michigan (Ann Arbor) and a Master's from USC (Los Angeles). My writing has won two Hopwoods and other awards. I've been pleased & fortunate to serve as a preliminary judge in a nationwide poetry contest, to have published technical articles regularly in a NASA publication on Technology Transfer, and to have had the privilege to study fiction with John Rechy.
I do some university instruction on the side (English and writing).
The purpose of this journal is to track publications and write about writing, the submission process & other relevant hell.
Recently:
Surface Properties of the Moon, short fiction, is up at Menda City Review.
In the Beginning, nonfiction, appears in print in the June 2007 Taj Mahal Review. Click for ordering information. (If you want to see my name in the list of authors, seek it under "Reflections".)
Featured Author piece at Identity Theory. More than you ever wanted to know about me and the guts of dead things.
Yellowstoned, nonfiction, at Identity Theory. This is an old piece.
Sensate, nonfiction. At Eclectica Magazine. Picture this.
Without Biting the Fruit of Knowledge, fiction. At Identity Theory. Another old one.
Earthquake Season, fiction at Storyglossia. Bad twin!* There's also an interview.
Crow, nonfiction. At Fringe Magazine. Poor little guy...
Turf, nonfiction published as fiction. Originally appeared at Flash Flooding. True story. Real couch.
* A quick, important note:
Because this story is written in the first person (using "I") and the main character has a sister who's a racist mental defective and whom she scorns greatly, a number of people -- even a couple who know me -- have recently made the erroneous interpretation that I am writing autobiographically about my own sister.
My real-life sister is one of my closest friends and has my greatest respect. She assists in open heart and brain surgeries all day for a living. At age 32, she's achieved just about the highest level of potential in her field and has achieved in full her professional objective. She sharpens my education regularly on the science in my writing. She's also a member of a racial minority herself, and intolerant of bigotry.
While we did live together in Pleasant Hill, California at one point, trust me: she's NOT the inspiration for Daphne. This is fiction, folks. It's a tissue of lies. My actual, highly brainy, greatly anal and nerd-like sister is a source of personal pride (since I share her clearly superior genetic profile).
She is, however, "Chicken" from Yellowstoned, which is nonfiction, after all.
Daphne did have some real-life inspiration, though. And we'll just leave that alone.
