Misty Zaugg
Misty Zaugg
M.D., martial artist, beekeeper, storyteller.

I've lived a lot of lives: med student, martial artist, herbalist, hobby survivalist, and homeschool mom of six. My husband is the other kind of doctor (the engineering kind). I also concoct herbal remedies, bake bread, and pulled honeycomb from my own beehives.

All of that feeds into my fiction. My characters fight for what matters: family, friends, and making their worlds a better place... then I heal them up so they can charge back into battle. :)

Whether it's a LitRPG world, a post-apocalyptic Gulf Coast, or a dystopian arena, I want you to care about the people on the page.
