Mavi Parolin
Mavi Parolin is a Brazilian author born and raised in São Paulo. From an early age, she found herself lost in stories, sometimes within the pages of books, other times in the worlds she imagined.
At seventeen, she moved abroad to study at Babson College, where she earned a business degree. After returning home, she struggled to find her true calling. Through it all, romantasy novels were her constant companions, fueling the spark that had been with her since childhood.
It wasn’t until 2020, during lockdown, that Mavi finally gave herself permission to craft her own story. In just 43 days, the first draft of Gifted was born, and she hasn’t stopped writing since.

Amanda Linsmeier
Amanda Linsmeier has been a book nerd as long as she can remember, and it was that great love of reading—especially R.L. Stine novels and fairytales—that eventually brought her to writing her own stories. In high school, she won the senior class vote for “Most Romantic Girl”, a title she’s still ridiculously pleased with. She feels most joyful when writing, scream-singing her favorite songs, playing in the water, and laughing with her beloved family. She lives in a magical place with a man who smells like maple syrup and woodsmoke, their wonderfully wild children, a dog, and an assortment of half-feral cats.

E.M. Riedl
E. M. Riedl—or Emri for short—is a Canadian geek who always wondered why authors needed biographies. When not plagued by the existential crisis of having to write about herself in the third person, she spends her leisure time playing role-playing games (of the video and tabletop variety) and reading about obscure history facts far too late into the night.

Ever since she started writing fantasy books at the inadvisable age of ten, Emri has been pursued by plot bunnies. She had successfully run away from them before completing anything—until now.
Her time of blissful, daydreaming procrastination ended with A Weave of Lies, her debut standalone novel. Emri is now planning many more fantasy romance books set in the Woven Worlds universe. -
