About the author

Fletcher DeLancey

Fletcher DeLancey is an Oregon expatriate who left her beloved state when she met a Portuguese woman and had to choose between home and heart. She chose heart. Now she lives in the beautiful, sunny Algarve and is retraining her green thumb from wet Oregon gardening to survive-a-Mediterranean-summer gardening (and thinks about writing a new book: How I Learned to Love Succulents).

She is best known for her science fiction/fantasy series Chronicles of Alsea, which has so far collected an Independent Publisher's Award (2017 bronze medal), a Golden Crown Literary Society Award, a Rainbow Award, and been shortlisted twice for a Lambda Literary Award. She has also been awarded the Alice B. Medal in recognition of career achievement. 

Fletcher believes that women need far more representation in science fiction and fantasy, and takes great pleasure in writing complex tales with women heading up the action. Her day is made every time a reader says, “I didn’t think I liked science fiction, but then I read yours.”
