| Chat with Karina Fabian |
 After having been a straight-A student, Karina Fabian has made a career of Fs: Family, Faith, Fiction and Fun.
Karina's writing career began with writing about parenting issues, the Catholic faith, and artists and community leaders. She's written for over 50 publications, including newspapers, magazines of all sizes and radio.
 She doesn't just write about family, but with her family. She wrote three craft books for a EcceHomo Press by using her kids to test, create and model the crafts. She and her husband, Robert, write science fiction stories while on dates.
In 2005, she turned her attention totally to fiction. With Rob, she has edited the Christian SF anthology, Leaps of Faith, (coming 2008) and Infinite Space, Infinite God, an award-winning SF anthology with Catholic themes (2007 twilight Times Books)
Her latest fantasy adventure, DragonEye, PI, features a down-and-out dragon working off a geas by the Faerie St. George. Vern d'Wyvern (yes, it's an embarrassing name for a dragon) is partnered by Sister Grace, a Mage for the Faerie Catholic Church. Together they solve crimes magical and Mundane and save the universes on an all-too-regular basis. DragonEye, PI, stories appear in magazines and on the Internet, and its first book, "Magic, Mensa and Mayhem" comes out from Swimming Kangaroo in early 2009.
In addition to juggling the stories from at least three different universes, Karina is President of the Catholic Writers' Guild, moderator of Catholic Writers Online, and active in a half-dozen or more groups. She also teaches writing seminars on-line. With four kids, four pets and a very understanding husband who is an officer in the Air Force, she tends to sleep in her "spare" time.
