About Helen

Helen M. Pugsley comes from a small town of 20 in eastern Wyoming but currently resides in Laramie. She has been writing since she was a teenager, and has published three novels titled War and Chess, Tales from the Gishlan Wood, and The Tooth Fairy. When she’s not writing she wanders around aimlessly on the search for fruit.

Helen M. Pugsley currently brags three published books, but has more patiently waiting in a trunk she uses as a coffee table. Most recently she has had work featured in The Deserted Zine. She was given the Wyoming Arts Council Professional Development Grant/Career Advancement Grant so that she could host book signings at Wyoming libraries, and get people back in the doors after Covid-1. Helen did so in March of 2022. She was selected for the Wyopoets scholarship in 2021, had her six word story, “I wanted to be a novelist” published in Midway Journal’s July 2020 issue. In 2019, she had a poem called, “Constellation” published in Madness Muse Press’ Magazine, Environmental Issue. She has been able to write a monthly blog post on writing for her blog, as well as enjoying a small following on Wattpad, YourQuote and Miriquill. She has had the privilege to write devotionals for American Baptist Churches of the Rocky Mountains newsletter, had work featured in Wyoming Writers’ newsletter, and WyoPoets’ newsletter. Her haiku ‘Where Do You See Yourself in Five Years’ was published in Teen Ink Magazine’s April 2015, issue. In 2013, she won Honorable Mention for her flash fiction story in Scholastics Art and Writing Awards, and again won Honorable Mention in the Scholastics contest in 2014, for her poetry. In 2012, she won honorable mention in the Famous Poets annual contest, had an article about her summer camp experiences published in the camp’s newsletter. Helen M. Pugsley also holds second and third place awards in Wyoming Young Authors from grade school.

Helen loves to travel! She’s been able to hold a grand total of nineteen book signings to promote her books. She has been all over North America, just for fun. One of her proudest accomplishments is walking into Mexico alone. So far she has only crossed one ocean (on her way to Hawaii) but she hopes to change that with a flight to Europe.
