Rebecca K. Rowe is a speculative fiction author and freelance writer living and working in Colorado. Her debut speculative fiction novel, Forbidden Cargo, has received critical acclaim from newspapers such as The Washington Post, the Rocky Mountain News and The Denver Post. Rowe also writes science poetry and short stories, inspired by her overseas travels and her more frequent armchair explorations at the keyboard. With a Master's in Mass Communications/Journalism from the University of Denver and a Master's in International Relations from the University of Southern California, her fiction reflects a hard social science dimension. She is the associate editor of the Speculative Literature Foundation newsletter, as well as a member of the National Space Society, the Mars Society and the Denver Woman's Press Club. Her first novel was a finalist in the Colorado Book Awards for 2007.
