Barb Geiger

From our humble beginnings in 2006, we’ve now expanded to 11 authors, with 11 books presently published, 12 books in various stages of editing and revision, and another five in negotiation. You might say we’ve been a bit busy.

Robert Runte joined us as Editor in Chief three years ago. Earlier this year Amy Bright joined we happy few as an Editorial Intern.

We’re now pleased to have Barb Geiger join us here at Five Rivers as another much-needed, and very welcome, Editorial Intern.

Barb, who is huge on enthusiasm and long on editorial acumen, has been critiquing and editing books for colleagues for over 15 years.

She enjoys any genre of literature, as long as it tells a tight story from beginning to end, and believes that while first drafts are perfect just for being complete, the editing process exposes the genius of the work.

Several of her short stories have been published, one winning an honourable mention in the Years Best Fantasy and Horror in 2006. She has several romance novels published under a pseudonym, but will take that name to her grave.

In 2010, she returned to writing fantasy, her first love.

Barb lives in Lethbridge, Alberta.
