SHORT FICTION
T. K. (they/she) grew up in Northern California and Northwest New Mexico where they spent countless long afternoons exploring the redwood forest and the high desert. Raised by a poet (L. Ann Kinyon) and a journalist (Malcolm J. Brenner), it was almost inevitable that T. K. would become a writer—but they've always had a passion for science, and studied to be a paleontologist before settling on fiction. Their stories have been described as climate fiction, solarpunk, hopepunk, eco-fantasy, sword and sorcery, slipstream, science fiction and literary; but the common throughlines are richly textured worlds, characters striving for connection, and the complex relationship between people, technology and the environment. T. K. spends their free time gaming, hiking around the Bay Area, and photographing street art in their San Francisco neighborhood, where they live with their partner, artist/musician Gary Boodhoo, and their two enormous tuxedo cats, Kaiju and Nyx.
