Kiter is a transplant from Huntsville, Alabama, where she lived for 15 years of her adult life. She now dwells in beautiful - but expensive - Silicon Valley, California, where she lives very happily with BobG, his daughter, and several very quirky cats.

She made the error of attaining a degree in fine arts, and since then has been relegated to a series of interesting, but not very financially rewarding, jobs, including painting (as in houses), carpentry, feature writer, proofreader, technical typist, medical assistant, waitress, housekeeper, art museum preparator, photographer, and part-time rabble rouser. She's currently on extended vacation. She spends her time adoring BobG, playing guitar and piano, keeping house (sort of), chatting in #mensa and with various other online friends, and trying to learn as much about her computer as her limitations will allow.

She wishes she could give big hugs to all her #mensa friends.
