Caitlin A. Quinn channels the voices in her head into novels, short stories, and truly bad poetry. Her writing has been featured in over a dozen literary and speculative fiction publications. She has won the 58th New Millennium Award for Fiction and was an award winner in the 25th Annual Writer’s Digest Short Short Story competition. Additionally, she was the Jeannine Cooney Fiction Scholar at the 2023 Leopardi Writing Conference in Italy, was a finalist in NYC Midnight’s 2023 Short Story Challenge, and has been nominated for a Kirkwood Prize.

She is an alumna of Stony Brook University's selective BookEnds Novel Fellowship program, having worked under the tutelage of Meg Wolitzer, Susan Scarf Merrell, and Stephanie Gangi on her debut novel: a re-imagining of the legend of King Arthur told from a unique perspective and steeped in Welsh mythology and early medieval history. She was awarded a Fulbright for her scholarship in Celtic Studies and is a member of the North American Branch of the International Arthurian Society and the Horror Writers Association, as well as an alumna of the juried NorCal Writers Retreat.

She lives in Northern California with her partner and two badly behaved Airedale terriers, who are undoubtedly plotting world domination.
