Author Info: Ellen Kushner (Patreon)

Ellen Kushner usually lives in New York City with her wife, writer Delia Sherman. They also spend a lot of time in Paris, which hardly influences their writing at all not even a little bit, no. During the CV-19 lockdown, they are sheltering in a friend's guest house in Tucson, Arizona, where they happened to be on a writing retreat when the Virus hit the fan. Kushner's novel Swordspoint introduced readers to the city to which she has returned in two more novels (one co-written with Delia), a growing handful of short stories and the collaborative serial prequel, Tremontaine (SerialBox.com). A longtime performer and public radio host, she narrated all three as audiobooks for Neil Gaiman Presents. Her award-winning Thomas the Rhymer is a Gollancz “Fantasy Masterwork.” But wait!
