Chauna Craig grew up in Great Falls, Montana where she's seen mermaids swim, and, she swears it's true, the wind once lifted her off her feet. She now lives in a purple house in Pennsylvania with her partner and children. Her first story collection, The Widow's Guide to Edible Mushrooms, won the Next Generation Indie Award for short fiction. Her second book, Wings & Other Things, will be published in September 2022.
