Lilo Abernathy is a somewhat eccentric, deep-thinking, warm-hearted young woman of at least 43 years. She started out as a restaurant chain hostess and worked her way up to the exciting world of global mergers and acquisitions where she’s sustained a successful fifteen year career. She’s enjoyed an on again/off again relationship with formal education and a long meandering path through several degree fields resulting in many honors but no degrees. As an absentee Mensa member in the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina, she spends her time writing or fulfilling her role as the information hound her friends affectionately accuse her of being.
