Artisan Author Bio:

Like many GenX INFPs, Quinn Columba Boyko survived public school by reading fantasy, and there was never enough! Neurospicey and differently-abled, she now handwrites atmospheric escapes set in deeply crafted and welcoming worlds (with collaborative cultures to twist the typical toxic hierarchy!). Her layered and lyrical tales bring emotional impact while exploring identity, relationships, and power. Readers leave high-vibe and hopeful.

PREVIOUS: Aurochs Underground Press published her short story THE REVERSE-DRYAD (2023), and poem My Sister, The Water (2024).
