Autorenporträt
Kristina Atkins writes speculative fiction inspired by mythos from around the world, complex human relationships, and her own experiences living with mental illness. After earning her BA in Linguistics from Brigham Young University in 2008, she received her MFA in Creative Writing from Converse College in 2012. She lives in Denver, where she and her husband spend countless hours chasing their three young sons (and sometimes catching them!). She collects Tarot decks, dyes her hair mermaid colors, and procrastinates by decorating her home.
