about

In 2019, Camille woke up with a beetle in their ear. After this, they decided life should not be taken too seriously.

They hold a PhD in what's best described as art history. It should be noted that Brexit upended their primary career plans pretty much overnight. Some other stuff has happened since then, of course. These days, instead of panel papers and monographs, Camille writes stories influenced by folklore, regional histories, and murder ballads. (Much of their work can be considered romantic or romances, but not all of it is.)

However, their lateral, innovative approach to connecting details and themes is always in evidence, with their fiction being described as "unexpected," "liminal," and "evocative."

They're an aesthete, a synesthete (really; it's fun), and like to eat. (Thai food, spicy food.) Though they seem quite chill, they're an Enneagram 8. (Sorry about that.)

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