Xen Randell

XEN LIVES WITH HER husband and their poodle in a historically-rich little city on the coast of Croatia, Pula.

She grew up reading all kinds of stories and genres; from thrillers and horrors, sci-fi and crime, to urban fantasy and paranormal romance. She draws inspiration from all of them, and meshes it with local lore and mythology to create new, compelling stories you cannot just push into any specific genre.

From the moment she tentatively trudged through her first books and fell in love with the fantastic worlds hidden among the ink-stained pages, she knew reading would become her salvation.

But reading wasn’t enough. The pull of the stories bubbling inside of her was too great to ignore, and despite her conviction that she wasn’t a good writer, eventually, the pull won. She started writing short stories while playing literary role-playing games with her fellow reader friends, and soon, it became evident that it wouldn’t be enough.

Xen Randell: Pen name for Urban Fantasy, Science Fiction and Paranormal Romance genre.
