I am a retired teacher, enjoying everything that retirement means. In addition, I have been active in the LGBTQ community since I was four years old and marched my Ken doll with all his little Ken accouterments to the big metal trash can in the yard. Yes, I dumped Ken, along with said accouterments, into the can and slammed the lid on. My two Barbie dolls lived happily ever after.
I am proud and honored to have my work featured in two Indie Blu’s anthologies, As the World Burns: Writers and Artists Reflect on a World Gone Mad and THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS: Reflecting on Madness and Chaos Within. I am as equally proud and honored to have been featured in two Pine Cone Review special Editions: Be Proud with Pride and Survival; in addition to The 7th edition of the Women of Appalachia Project’s publication, Women Speak.
Feel free to contact me at annettekalandros@gmail.com. Yes, I still use the email associated with my former pen name, which I no longer use. Thank you!

Hah! I dismembered my Ken doll at around the same age. Then my little bestie & I dropped him piece by piece into the sewer. Barbie never seemed to notice he was gone…
