Claudia’s writing doesn’t behave. An independent speculative fiction author, she stitches emotional gravity to surreal worlds, letting grief, identity, and transformation collide with absurdity, wonder, and the occasional talking fungus. Her stories bend genre and mood with ease—wandering from darkly whimsical to sharply poignant without ever losing their pulse. She writes for anyone who’s ever felt like a beautiful, bizarre glitch in the system.

She loves twisty tales of underdogs defying authority, defeating demons (literal or otherwise), and discovering found family in the middle of the chaos. Her background in IT development and a short stint as a research scientist serve her well in creating mystical realms and futuristic worlds.

Claudia lives in Minnesota with her kids and an assortment of pets.

She writes stories that are 50% heart, 50% weird, and 100% imagination.
