Shanley spent the past couple decades in Corporate America writing brilliant press releases, crafting stunning copy for employee magazines and newsletters, and wordsmithing the crap out of websites and emails. While Corporate America does not appreciate the occasional internal rhyme as much as it should, it did teach her to churn out copy on deadline and gracefully take “writing help” from engineers, accountants, and lawyers. Shanley lives on a hill outside Ponca City, Okla., with her husband and a trio of ungrateful dogs, where she now writes about things other than the oil industry, when she’s not freaking about access problems in D2L.
