B.S.H. Garcia

B. S. H. Garcia writes speculative fiction with teeth: epic stakes, unhinged characters, and just enough grief to leave a hangover. After all, is a story any good if you aren't questioning your own morality and whether you'd actually have the guts to unravel whatever power structure someone thought was a good idea?

As a child, she began dissecting such questions in her backyard with stick swords and library books, eventually earning an English Writing degree from the University of Colorado (which no one asked for, but she’s still proud of). She’s wandered from Oregon to New Zealand chasing stories, whispering plot twists to trees, drinking horn in hand, and pretending she’s not eavesdropping on the universe.

By day, she manages a household. B
