The Author

Victoria N. Shi (师懷夕) is a pseudonym. The Chinese version is credited to a close friend of mine. Thanks, Rufus!

Victoria is a Chinese American Young Adult and adult science fiction, fantasy, and fabulist author currently residing on the West Coast of the United States. Previously, she spent a decade in Hong Kong, and also lived in Texas, Massachusetts and the Midwest.

She is a Clarion West graduate. In her free time, she engages in advocacy for mental health within the author community.

Outside of the writing world, she’s a healthcare worker and all-round aquarium enthusiast, both of which influence her stories. She also enjoys cosplay.

She is represented by Ernie Chiara at Fuse Literary.
