She/her. PhD in Egyptology, now I write fiction. The Night Library of Sternendach is my novella in sonnets. The Glass Garden is space horror and family drama.
Will boost almost anything with a bat in it.

This cinematic dark fantasy novel is brimming with twists, tension, and high stakes. Unapologetically neurodivergent. Ruthlessly anti-authoritarian. Fully unique and thought provoking.

I post Bookshop links to support local bookstores nationwide. A lot of local bookstores are also fighting the good fight in places like MN, where I happened to place IN THE HOUSE OF IN BETWEEN (on Lake Superior in Grand Marais). Buy a book, fight fascism!

Thanks, Gabino! Shamelessly plugging my newest story "Onions" out on The Brussel's Review Dark Anthology, about a prison janitor whose retirement is upended by a culinary memory.
