Victoria Costello
I'm an author and life-writing teacher living in Ashland, Oregon. I've published six books of nonfiction, including a memoir, A Lethal Inheritance. My debut novel, Orchid Child, published in June/2023 by Liminal Books, won the top prize for General Fiction and Cross-Genre Fiction in the 2023 American Book Fest Awards. Set in NYC and West Ireland over the course of the 20th century, Orchid Child asks the question, how far would you go to heal the past? My answer is this enchanted family saga that blends mystery, history, magic realism, and romance to map intergenerational trauma and its healing in one Irish American family. Along the way, Orchid Child explores the intersection of ancient Celtic mysticism and 21st century neurodiversity.

Living faith, one story at a time.
Buy books on Amazon
My stories feature characters readers will love with stories that encourage living out faith every day, even when life gets messy.
Growing up as a reader of Christian fiction, these are the types of stories that captured my imagination and grew my faith. These are the stories I still want to read. I love opening a story for entertainment and leaving it inspired in some way.
While my stories are fiction, each one contains a little bit of me on the pages. It might be found in the setting, a hobby the character enjoys, or a struggle I've faced in my own life.

We’ll start at the very beginning. I was born. Yeah, you’re probably thinking “so what, that happened to all of us.” It did, but the number of people who were born in Bendigo, Australia on the same day I was is probably pretty small and it’s probably safe to say that the number of people who were born on that day who are now reading this is even smaller. So, in that respect, it’s worthy of note.
Then I grew up. And before you say it, yeah I know, you did too. But did you grow up in the Aussie outback, moving from one cattle station to the next as your Dad -
