V. S. Holmes lives in a Tiny House and owns too many books for such a small abode. Her favorite genres include fantasy, science (of both the non-fiction and fiction varieties), and anything with diverse protagonists. When not writing, she works as a contract archaeologist doing Cultural Resource Management throughout the northeastern U.S.

Smoke and Rain, the first in her fantasy quartet, was chosen for New Apple Literary’s 2015 Excellence in Independent Publishing Award. "Starfall," a science-fiction short can be found in the January 2016 issue of Vitality, an LGBT magazine.
