Adventures in Creativity

Sue Parman is an anthropologist and award-winning author and artist who writes in a number of genres, from poetry and anthropological travel memoirs to horror, science fiction, and fairy tales. Born in Connecticut, raised in Iowa and New Mexico, marooned for years in California, she now lives happily in Oregon where she hikes forested trails, stalks Powell's labyrinthine bookstore, and enjoys a sane public transportation system. Before Covid she traveled frequently, from the mysterious stone gardens of Bomarzo, Italy, to the Scottish Outer Hebrides where she studied a crofting community for over thirty years. Her most recent publication is a supernatural mystery, "Gannets and Ghouls," coming out in Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine in Fall 2024. Her story, "You Can't Get There from Here," received the Travelers' Tales 2024 Solas Grand Prize Award for Best Travel Story of the Year.
