Biography
Rhonda Parrish has the attention span of a magpie. Not only can she not focus on a single project at a time, but she also fails at sticking to one genre or even one type of writing (she does manage to stay true to one hockey team, though -- Let's go Oilers!). Perhaps best known for her work as an anthology editor -- the Ottawa Review of Books called her "Canada's best-known and most prolific speculative fiction anthologist" -- Rhonda also works as a short story writer, novelist, game writer and a poet. She has been honoured to be included in a handful of 'Best of' anthologies, earn a coveted starred review from Publisher's Weekly and be shortlisted for several awards including the Rhysling Award, the Aurora Award, the Dwarf Stars Award and Alberta Book Publishing Awards.
Most of her work falls under the speculative fiction umbrella but she has also penned paranormal non-fiction and non-speculative work. Her recent long form releases include the Saltwater Sorrows anthology, an anthropomorphic dog novel for adults entitled Blindspots and a Norse mythology inspired cozy urban fantasy novel, One in the Hand.
In an effort to impose some order in her chaos, these days most of her short fiction and poetry is published directly through her Patreon while more information about her, updates and calls for submission are posted on her website.
