Blalock, Ellen Penniman is a native of Columbia, South Carolina, where she earned degrees in Experimental Psychology, Mathematics and later studied American Literature. In 1999, she moved to Connecticut, then to Stoughton in 2005. She has enjoyed a twenty-year career in Information Technology as a data analyst and software/application developer.
Ms. Penniman became interested in dystopias at a younger age than was probably advisable. Perhaps her parents should have made alternate suggestions before the seventh-grade book report on Kurt Vonnegut’s Slapstick. It was an oral report, in front of the whole class, in great detail. The parent-teacher conference after that was probably very interesting. Of course, it was too late and in spite of puzzled classmates and discombobulated English teachers, Ms. Penniman was hooked. In high school, when Emily Bronte and Chaucer were the assigned reading, she was curling up with George Orwell, Rolling Stone, and of course, more Vonnegut. ver menos
