Autorenporträt
Anya Martin was weaned on Friday Night Frights, has always rooted for the monster, and regrets abandoning her earliest career aspiration-digging for dinosaurs. She listens to punk rock with a heavy side of funk and experimental jazz, cooks dangerously hot curries, and hangs with dogs whenever possible. She's also half-Finnish, has an anthropology degree from Smith College, and earns her living as a journalist. Her fiction has appeared in anthologies and magazines including Tales from a Talking Board, Looming Low, Eternal Frankenstein, Cthulhu Fhtagn!, Giallo Fantastique, Cassilda's Song, Borderlands 6, Mantid, Daybreak Magazine and Womanthology: Heroic. She produces The Outer Dark podcast, featuring interviews with contemporary Weird/spec-lit creators, with Scott Nicolay, for This Is Horror.
