NYC-born and bound, Stephanie Nina Pitsirilos is a critically acclaimed writer with a boutique publishing imprint that bends genre, as well as spacetime, in artistic themes. Her works can be found in: numerous traditional anthologies and hardcovers; in crudely folded, die-cut and handsewn pages made with a renegade zinester hat; tucked elegantly inside handsewn silk clutches holding perfumed limited artists’ books. Her most recent project with rave reviews including <em>Kirkus Reviews</em> is <strong><em>Event Horizon: Stories of No Turning Back</em></strong> (Janus Point Press 2024), a multi-medium debut short story collection that examines what happens when we “cross the line”, with introductions by astrophysics and literary academia. She is the recipient of the 2022 Chautauqua Janus Prize for her story “Jean,” called “masterful” by Publishers Weekly. She’s recognized as a new voice transforming the genres of science fiction and fantasy and revitalizing the short comic form. She creates visual art as ANDROMEDA.<br>
