Hi, I’m Deb Coates.  And this may be a temporary, place-holder entry as I set up my new website.

But, for now:

I’m a writer of fantasy and science fiction.  I’ve published short stories in Asimov’s, Strange Horizons, Year’s Best Fantasy 6 and others.  My first novel, Wide Open will be published by Tor on March, 13, 2012.

I have two dogs, Billie, a Rottweiler and Blue, a German Pinscher.  I talk about them a lot. I live in flyover country.
