I write nightmares people can enjoy and dreams with teeth.

Horror, fantasy, and whatever lives where they blur. Stories about grief, memory, identity, and love that refuses to die quietly.

I grew up between Anatolia, the Mediterranean, the Middle East, and the steppes. Old places. My writing comes from there too. Myths and half-remembered legends.

Born and raised in Istanbul, studied in London. Now I live in a 17th-century stone farmhouse in rural Catalonia with the love of my life (who is an amazing artist), my kids, five dogs, a deeply judgmental cat named Galadriel who supervises every draft.

Hi Ronald!
No it is not visible. How weird.
I am so glad you liked it a lot. It was a novella that started as a short story and grew. Not my most edited work so I am sure it could have been better but I was too eager to share it!
I have bought a lot of T Kingfisher's books but I have not been getting the reading time I wish I could with a toddler and a pregnancy at the same time.
I am currently reading A Guide to Defensive Baking which I found by chance over 2 years ago and only got the time to read now.

I really need to update my TBR pile too which this question has been a great reminder of.
