D.O. Moore is a published poet, translator, and fiction writer. She's currently querying her recently completed novel, Seeding the Race, a work of speculative fiction. Her work explores the tension of our human need for connection against the threat of pain that connecting holds. Moore asks questions, writes, and makes jewelry in the Washington, D.C., metro area, where she lives with her family, two cats, a snake, a triggerfish, and a toad named Timmy.
