Hey! Name's Sasha. I'm:
- a 2022 Wattys shortlister for my sci-fi/fantasy book, Garden of Light
- a 2023 ONC shortlister for my sci-fi novella, For the Good of the World
- an ordained Unitarian Universalist minister who sometimes brings sci-fi/fantasy nerdery into the pulpit
- a beginner figure skater trying to make my flutz jump into a lutz jump and my sit and layback spins actually sit and lay back
- and a singer, tabletop roleplay nerd, and opinionated progressive
In my books you'll find stories blurring the line between science fiction and fantasy with alien worlds, clever troublemakers, arcane sciences, intersectional justice, apocalyptic environmental themes, bizarre magic with a splash of neo-Roman culture, and people finding of moments of gentleness in brutal dystopian worlds.
