Larissa Brown writes romantic speculative fiction, as well as books and essays about creativity and knitting. She is the author of Beautiful Wreck, a time travel love story set in 10th century Iceland. Her research took her to Iceland, and she's become an amateur expert on Vikings. Tress - a fantasy-horror novella - is her second book of fiction. She's hard at work on a companion novel to Beautiful Wreck and gathers gorgeous and inspiring images and research links on pinterest.

Larissa is an avid reader of scifi, gothic romance, time travel literature and knitting stitch dictionaries. She lives in the Pacific Northwest with her husband Martin (also a scifi writer), and her 10-year-old son Sebastian, adorable loser-of-handmade-hats.
