Ashia Monet is a novelist and essayist from Pennsylvania. As a lifelong fan of myth and poetry (especially Sappho), her fantasy novels explore various forms of magic and monsters. She finds inspiration from subverting popular tropes and is passionate about fashion, food, and whatever “lifestyle content” means. If she is ever missing, please search for her in tiny coffee shops, at home playing video games—or, perhaps, on a sudden trip to a city she mentioned being interested in approximately once.
