Lynn Robin (1992) is an author of Paranormal Romance Dark Fantasy novels. Born and raised in the historical city of Leiden in the Netherlands, she has felt the urge to write stories ever since she was little.

She made her debut in 2017 with her Dutch series entitled the Schimmenwereld Serie (the Phantom World series, containing six books about ghosts, angels, demons, music, dance, art, and—of course—love). With the fourth instalment, Schimmendroom (Phantom Dream), she won the Best Book of 2018 award chosen by the jury of The Indie Awards.Read More →

Ursula Visser was born in Spring, in the most eastern part of the Netherlands, and she still lives there with her partner. She always had a vivid fantasy, from a young age on. She adores dragons, mystic creatures, and the magic realms of fantasy books. However, sci-fi books give her an interesting look into the future, and sometimes she wishes to be able to time travel, just to see what will happen in the future or live a day in the past centuries.

Writing is her passion. Her books are available in Dutch and English.Read More →

Author interview – Clarissa Gosling

Clarissa Gosling has always lived more in the world of daydream and fiction than in reality. In her writing, she explores purpose and belonging across worlds. Having never found her own portal to faeryland, she is resigned to writing about fantastical worlds instead.

She now lives in the Netherlands with her family, where she writes as much as they will let her. When not reading or writing, she drinks too much tea and has a burgeoning obsession with Bundt cakes.

Clarissa is the author of the Dragons of Kaitstud and Lost Princess of Starlight YA fantasy series, and the Expat Life series of non-fiction guides for families moving, and living, abroad.Read More →
