Lily Hammer is a grimdark fantasy and speculative fiction writer based somewhere between the best parts of New York and the worst parts of Jersey.

She fancies herself as someone who can write about the deepest darkest places of the human condition while still being funny about it.

When she isn’t writing, she can be found playing drums loudly in a suburban neighborhood, working in the music industry, and collecting tattoos impulsively.

Growing up is highly overrated. Just be an author.

Neil Gaiman
