Why So Many Creatures?
Though at one point this question was troubling for Julia, she now feel pretty confident about her incessant need to anamorphize her subject. Chair to dog-thing, wall to squid-thing. hat to bat and book to cook. Julia has been inviting her little friends out to play every since she was little, and now holds one of the largest collections of rare specimen of creature from around the world. Come see her collection, soon to be online in all of its zoological glory.

Who Is She
Julia Wilson is a native of the hills of New Jersey, but managed to find herself in New York for four years, doing god knows what, only to return home and sleep in the same old bed and eat at the same old table. Parents not rushing her out the door, she spent the next 6 months developing a collection of thing-creatures, slowly discovered as long forgotten corners of her home where explored. This long period of withdrawn isolation failed to stop her from building a resume of a half a dozen gigs working on television, publishing, and the Internet.
Still interested, feel free to read more about her day to day adventures at her blog.
