KJ Hannah Greenberg’s story is sweetly complex. A former rhetoric professor and National Endowment for the Humanities awardee, Hannah edited and contributed to Conversations on Communication Ethics, wrote for The American Journal of Semiotics, and The Massachusetts Journal of Communication, contributed papers to meetings of: The Eastern Sociology Society, National Communication Association, and the American Branch of the International Society for the History of Rhetoric, and gave lectures at various Northeast colleges and universities. She also served as a guest editor for Communication Quarterly and as a founding member of The Speech Communication Association’s Commission on Communication Ethics.
Yet, Hannah gave up all manner of academic hoopla to chase a hibernaculum of imaginary hedgehogs and to raise children. Blessed to be the parent of two girls and two boys, three of whom are presently raging through their teen years, and one of whom is threatening to spring from his preadolescence, Hannah discovered, (all things being unequal) that it is both more rewarding and more difficult to raise children than to instruct thousands of college students on the nuances of human interactions.
Today, Hannah tramps across literary themes and genres. She devotes her eclectic writing to: lovers of slipstream fiction, poets, parents too busy to contemplate their crises, and oboe players who never got past the second orchestral chair. During 2008-2009, Hannah’s lightly pert and somewhat exuberant, layered writing has been published or accepted for publication by: 365 Tomorrows, AlienSkin Magazine, AntipodeanSF, Bards and Sages, Bewildering Stories, Cantaraville, Cerulean Rain, Della Donna, Doorknobs and Bodypaint, Fallopian Falafel, Feathertale Review, Fictionville, Flashshot, Flash Scribe, G.
