Helena Bell is the not-quite-bestselling author of some not-quite-published poems and short stories. In college she shortened her name to Hel, and yes, she really does answer to it. When she's bored she googles herself to see what other people are saying about her.

Hel is a figure vaguely known.

Hel graduated from Newcomb College in 2004 with a BA in Women's Studies (yes it's a real major). In 2008 she graduated from Southern Illinois University in Carbondale with an MFA in Poetry. In 2011 she will graduate from Washington University in St. Louis with a Juris Doctor because she really does love school that much. She has not yet decided whether she would like to pursue an MD, MPH, MBA, CPA, or a PhD in TV/VCR repair, but she has not definitively ruled any of them out.

Hel is rare enough that it is not illegal in most areas yet

The ideas, opinions and fanciful musings espoused in these and other pages by and associated with the entity Hel Bell the occasional writer are not necessarily the same of Helena Bell the more than occasional lawyer.

Helena is envious…

Of her brother William, the talented artist who is responsible for all the artwork on this site.
