Ashe Thurman

Winner of Cinnabar Moth Literary Collections Short Story Prize 2022

Ashe Thurman is a sci-fi and fantasy creator whose writing can be found in Flash Fiction Online, the MENSA bulletin, and a handful of indie zines and local literary magazines. Their primary vocation is in game development and interactive fiction. They founded their own studio and are the lead writer, artist, designer, and producer for a number of narrative games.

They also happen to be a professional voice actor for anime and video games and do freelance audio processing of this nature for small indie studios.

They like to think of the bulk of their writing as a way to create worlds where both the laws of science and social constructs around gender, sexuality, prejudice, and mental health get to play by different rules. The subsequent result ends up being an exercise in expressing their own queerness and neurodiversity.

They, their spouse, and three cats continue to live in Texas where they were born and raised but like to travel when they can. Their garden is packed with herbs and native pollinators, and their an expert at getting Jupiter right in the center of the telescope viewfinder.
