Facebook Friend #12 - Karen
I'm not sure what to say about Karen, except that not only have I found her endlessly inspirational, I believe the world itself daily benefits from her wry grace. We have known each other on-line for somewhere around a decade, also through Livejournal, yet this picture is from the first day we met, (which is criminal). She recently stepped down as the Fiction Editor at Strange Horizons to take over writing for the BBC Dr. Who franchise, because that's just how she rolls, but most importantly, I love that The Time Before Meeting Karen now exists.
