According to intel at our inter-dimensional space on Artut, Ms. Aspen appears to be an INFJ. This is per the Myers-Briggs personality typology, of which we are familiar. INFJs are the rarest of personality types and suspected to be represented by as few as 2% of the human population. (Which may, or may not, be a good thing, depending on one's perspective.)
Quite sensitive, the INFJs are deep thinkers and have a profound fondness of others, while at the same time being secretive as a way to protect themselves.
This creates a conundrum then, when writing Ms. Aspen's bio, for though she learns much from others, she shares little about herself. What we have gleaned so far is that she lives in Vermont in the United States and has a wonderful husband who, by no fault of his own, married a writer. Despite his predicament he is quite accepting of her oddities, sources tell us, such as her proclivity to grab her industrial-grade, noise-canceling headphones whenever her muse comes visiting (no matter if it's in the middle of his sentence).
Ms. Aspen also has two dogs, small, hardly visible from our satellites. She appears to be happy, loving, and as mentioned, very, very private.

The Dreamtidings of a Disgruntled Starbeing: Life With a Psychopathic Brother
Many books talk about the psychopath as your potential coworker, neighbor, or partner, but few books touch on the subject of what it's like to grow up with a psychopath; the challenge of keeping one's self when a predator is right there as you take your first steps and you have nowhere to run.
In the sleepy town of Pennington in upstate New York, all is not well in the Tippins household, despite outward appearances. Precocious, 13-year-old Klara Tippins does not fit in with her family, she does not fit in with her peers, and she is beginning to suspect that she is incompatible with life on planet Earth. As she navigates her confusing, disconnected life, she encounters three belief systems—Hinduism, Quakerism, and Q’ero Shamanism—that set her on a journey of self-discovery.
A warmhearted novel about forgiveness and the power of self-acceptance.
