Leandra Wallace


Leandra Wallace lives in the Midwest with her husband and son (both of whom she feels are adorable). She writes YA & MG speculative fiction, and loves to dream about her one-day book launch party-- more than is probably healthy. She enjoys diet vanilla pop, ampersand collecting, party planning, and all the sweets. Her short stories "The Mad Scientist's Daughter", "Prina and the Pea", and "Leaves, Trees, and Other Scary Things", are featured in Brave New Girls: Tales of Girls and Gadgets (June 2015), Circuits & Slippers (Sept 2016), and the 2017 Young Explorer's Adventure Guide (2017).

This collection of sci-fi stories features brainy young heroines who use their smarts to save the day. Girls who fix robots and construct superhero suits, hack interstellar corporations and build virtual reality platforms. Who experiment with alien chemicals and tinker with time machines. Who defy expectations and tap into their know-how—in the depths of space, or the bounds of dystopia, or the not-too-distant future—to solve despicable crimes, talk to extraterrestrials, and take down powerful villains.

All revenues from sales of this anthology will be donated a scholarship fund through the Society of Women Engineers. Let’s show the world that girls, too, can be tomorrow’s inventors, programmers, scientists, and more.
