BiographyHistory

'Angel is a queer writer and communication professional. An avid reader as a young person, Angel loved losing themselves in fantasy novels, as well as roleplaying games. But they didn't consider themselves creative and, following a rough childhood, prioritised clarity in life so they studied maths and computing. As Angel grew into their authentic self, they realised they actually loved the greys between the blacks and whites. They moved into a communication career, applying creativity professionally and building belief in their imagination. After a vivid dream in 2013 that they thought would make a great book chapter, Angel wrote (over the course of eight years) their first novel, The Design of Resistance, and eventually self-published it. Over this time, they became far more progressive than they would ever have expected from their rural Queensland upbringing, working both personally and professionally to advance social justice, equity and equality. So it wasn't that surprising that their second book idea was inspired by some progressive social media posts. Angel lives in Canberra, Australia, with a chatty and fluffy cat.' (Google books)
