Briane (she/they) has an M.S. degree and over a decade of experience as an informal educator and natural resource interpreter. She started her first story in 4th grade and fully recognizes that it was loose fanfiction of Tamora Pierce's The Song of the Lioness series. Briane later attempted obvious Harry Potter fanfiction in 8th grade. Their writing journey came full circle when she dove into Star Wars fanfiction during the 2020 lockdown. From that deep well of inspiration, they began sculpting original work that explores darkness, identity, healing, and queer love. She plans to publish novels across genres, collections of poetry, handfuls of short stories, and children’s picture books. They live in the Texas Hill Country with their partner and child, as well as three cats, two dogs, and a bushel of chickens. |
