Iris Retzlaff (she/they) is a neurodivergent queer fantasy author from a tiny forgotten corner of the world.
They have a MA in British and American Studies, but likes to say it’s in Escapism with a minor in Procrastination.

While some of their stories are lighthearted and full of humour, others rather want to break your heart than make you laugh.

They also answer to Fen and can often be found on Instagram, screaming about books with like-minded book dragons (IG: fendassor), or on Tumblr @ fendassor-scribbles

And found himself at Bilairy’s Gate.
He stood outside and refused to knock
Because he meant to pick the lock.”

“If the real world were a book, it would never find a publisher. Overlong, detailed to the point of distraction-and ultimately, without a major resolution.”
