In 2019, Camille woke up with a beetle in their ear. After this, they decided nothing should be taken too seriously, including their professional trajectory. They hold a PhD in what's best described as art history, but may also make real art historians run away screaming.

It should be noted that Brexit fucked up their career plans pretty much overnight. Some other stuff has happened, too, of course. NB... according to a prospective editor who turned down a creative nonfiction query, nobody wants to read about Brexit now.

These days, instead of panel papers and monographs, Camille writes haunting, romantic stories influenced by folklore, regional histories, and sensation fiction. However, their lateral approach to connecting details and themes is still in evidence, with their fiction being described as "unexpected," "liminal," and "evocative."

Very importantly, that beetle is dead, as well as no longer where it shouldn't have been.
