Allister Nelson (she/her) is a multiple Pushcart Prize-nominated author whose work has appeared in The British Fantasy Society, Apex Magazine, ILLUMEN, Eternal Haunted Summer, Renewable Energy World, Frontiers in Health Communication, The National Science Foundation, Luna Station Quarterly, Prismatica Press, Coffin Bell, FunDead Publications, and many other venues. Her work has been translated internationally into Polish and Spanish, and has appeared in anthologies alongside Graham Masterston, Bill Willingham, Jane Yolen, and Alan Dean Foster. By day, she's a D.C.-adjacent Communications and Marketing Nut ("Allie's a Natural Washingtonian: a mile wide and an inch deep"), proud staff writer at Pride With a Bite, and senior technical and science writer. By night, she dabbles in prose, poems, Greco-Roman found feminism graphic novels, and illustrations. In her spare time, Allie is a wanderer of graveyards, weaver of fables, caster of literary aspersions, and gazer at alien starships. She'd like to kiss Mothman one day.
