ⓘ About Vicki Lane

She graduated from the University of Florida, where she took just one creative writing class and penned one truly terrible short story “Too Late the Snow”. Her early dreams of becoming a poet became dashed when the New Yorker rejected her very first submission. In the year 1963, she married her high school sweetheart and went on to teach English at a Tampa prep school and got her MA in English Lit, without any short stories were written, just one mock-epic for some class on Pope. Then, in 1975, seduced by The Whole Earth Catalog and Mother Earth News, Vicki, her husband, their two dogs, and their three year old son moved to a mountain farm where they learned from their neighbors how to butcher pigs, milk cows, raise tobacco, and plow with mules.
