    In 1930's New York, the Empire Stage Building is finished with a docking spire for dirigibles. From their penthouse apartment in Midtown, a grandmother and her granddaughter can see blimps approaching. Everyone is excited, except the women. They know the real reason the blimp is there, and that it is coming for them.

    Jill Zeller

Her works explore the complex geology of reality. Some may call it fantasy but there are rarely swords and never elves.
