About the writer

Write a short, honest bio here. One or two paragraphs is enough: what you write, what the site is for, and what kind of reader might enjoy these stories.

For now, Purple Library is a free reading room. Later, you can add a newsletter, support link, or printed editions without changing the whole website.
