Aaron Dick is a teacher living north of Auckland in New Zealand with his wife, their two daughters, and a small menagerie of household animals. They all love when his eldest daughter visits too. 

​​​​​​​
He grew up as a voracious reader of science-fiction and fantasy, often to the annoyance of his unheeded family. Becoming an author was a childhood dream, alongside being a palaeontologist, or a rock star.


His stories have featured in a collection of New Zealand short stories inspired by Grimms’ Fairy Tales, the gothic art and lifestyle magazine Nocturne and the online literary journal Headland.
