@TheChromaBooks
Emory Glass is an avid artist, worldbuilder, and author. She wrote her first novella aged 12. A year later, she discovered fantasy of the gloomier variety and resolved to create a lush world of magic and excitement brimming with vivid characters, byzantine plots, inexhaustible lore, and shocking story twists. This she dubbed “The Chroma Books." She penned the first novel set in its universe at 16 and earned her first publication shortly after turning 18. She prioritizes stories with female characters in most leading roles, standalones that fit into the greater backdrop of the same setting, and meticulous lore. When not writing or reading Dark Fantasy, you can find her sipping a cup of matcha and hanging out with her husband, the two cats who tolerate them, and their beloved malligator.
