Her earliest publication was a contribution to the June 2002 poetry anthology Speculon. She produced the musical album Pretty Little Dead Girl in 2006 and published her first short story in The Edge of Propinquity in 2008.
From 2008 to 2017, she posted installments of the Velveteen series to LiveJournal with the support of fan sponsorships.

She traveled with her father, a carnival worker of Romani origin, during the summer, an experience that she described as "Bradbury-esque running wild and unfettered through farmers' fields, building Ferris wheels and living on funnel cake."
This experience had a strong influence on her later work, particularly InCryptid: several of the stories in the series (particularly Magic for Nothing, Married in Green and The Flower of Arizona) are set in or feature carnivals, and the companion Ghost Roads series tells the story of a highway ghost.
She has at least two brothers on her father's side of the family.
Her mother, Micki McGuire, had "primary custody, two other children, no money, and an abusive husband who targeted [her]", and her early childhood was difficult.
McGuire, who attended University of California, Berkeley, currently lives in Washington State.
She has described her interests as including "swamps, long walks, long walks in swamps, things that live in swamps, horror movies, strange noises, musical theater, reality TV, comic books, finding pennies on the street, and venomous reptiles."
McGuire frequently posts online about roleplaying games, My Little Pony, and caring for her menagerie of cats.
Before becoming a full-time writer, she worked at a reptile rescue organization.
She identifies as pansexual, bisexual and demisexual, and writes numerous queer characters into her work.
