About the Author

Hi, I'm Milena Thomas, and I write Quiet the Thunder to cover topics that do not belong on my other blogs, mostly stuff about marriage, economics and politics from a classical liberal point of view, and occasionally, baby poop (though not usually in the same post).

My other blogs are: Working the Voice (about the art and business of singing) and Art and Avarice (about the intersection of the arts and economics). I am a musician, mother, wife, professor, and researcher. I love to bake, read, write, hang out with my dogs, and work out with my new PS3 video game and I blog about all that too.

All opinions expressed here are entirely my own, and may or may not represent those of my employer and/or anyone I knows.

Here are some of my most popular (or hated) blog posts:

• A Gripe About Annoying Pregnant Girl Syndrome
• Abortions for Earth? (Warning, I'm pro-life so don't read it if that upsets you.)
• Night Moves: Going to Grad School while Working Full Time
• A Few of My Favorite Things

I'm very interested in answering questions about economics for those who have a tough time understanding what the heck is going on these days, so leave a comment or email me if you have any. I'm also up for rational, even-handed debate on everything I write on this blog. So if you have something to say or you think I'm wrong, let me know.

You are free to contact me via the following handy-dandy form. But it may take a a while to hear back from me!

Follow Me Elsewhere on The Web

As a woman that wears many hats, you may be interested in checking out my other blogs and online activities:

Working the Voice: A blog about vocal technique and business essentials for artists, the companion blog to my professional services through The Voice Works Studio, LLC.

Art and Avarice: A blog dedicated to reviewing news and offering opinion related to arts, culture, and economics. I'm planning to get my PhD in Finance in the future, and with my background in the arts, I'm fascinated about the interplay between the two disciplines.

En Passant: the website of the voice and guitar duet my husband and I formed in 2004. We perform locally and promise to have more songs to download and CDs to sell soon!

Check out my videos on YouTube: these will range from lectures I have presented to vocal technique videos I have prepared for students, to a wide range of performances I take part in.

You can catch me on Twitter for the release of gems like,

"Why is there that impulse to try to straighten papers that are already stapled? You see it all the time."

Or more comedy gold,

"I have succumbed to so-called skinny jeans. Bending over is a challenge - I keep doing this weird one-legged arabesque move..."
