As a part-time student, Leigh-Ann is pursuing a PhD in creative writing. As a hobby, she also studies anthropology, general religious studies, and politics at the University of Winnipeg. Her love of learning inspires her writing in its many forms.
Her interest in dogs goes back to childhood and she's had and trained several dogs throughout her lifetime. She trained a search and rescue dog in her late teens and a hearing ear dog in her early twenties. Today, though she no longer formally trains dogs, she does help people in her community with problem dogs. She deals with temperment problems, fear aggression, basic training issues when she's not working towards her PhD.
As a career, she writes fantasy novels, and the occasional non-fiction book as well, usually under her pen name, LA Quill. She is also a popular web content writer on a variety of subjects, posting under her legal name, Leigh-Ann Andersen. She is considered a local expert on paganism, the occult, tarot, and astrology. She also teaches some local classes on these topics, though the group she founded, The Order of the Sacred Star.
