Event tag: Carolyn Kay
From an early age, Carolyn Kay’s been steeped in the worlds of fantasy and science fiction. She watched Star Wars at the drive-in and viewed Star Trek (the original series and Next Gen) religiously with her parents. Legos and Star Wars figures were her favorite toys, and Madeleine L’Engle and Tolkien graced her bookshelves at a young age. So it’s no surprise that she writes stories in a variety of genres, or that her first novel was an Avengers-Star Wars crossover fanfic.
Carolyn melded two of her favorite genres—steampunk and fantasy—into a series titled, “Galessel’s Tale,” set in the world of Ashelon, co-created with her husband and award-winning illustrator, Chaz Kemp. She’s also authored several short stories and a sci-fi novelette.
A government drone, she carves out time to write in between the day job, belly dancing, gardening, photography, and herding two very independent felines.
You can find her at carolynkayauthor.com and on most social media platforms under the username, Bewitchinghips.
