Linda Cleary is an American mixed-race writer who grew up on U.S. military bases across Asia with her single father, where escape plans and gas masks were just part of daily life.

Now settled in the Bay Area with her husband, daughter, and dogs, she writes fantastical stories—often set in space or alternate realities—that explore identity, belonging, and the meaning of home. She’s also a voice actor, artist, and musician.
