Vera Nazarian is a two-time Nebula Award(R) finalist, a Dragon Award 2018 finalist, and a member of Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association. As a double refugee, after immigrating from the USSR during the Cold War, and then escaping from the Civil War in Lebanon (by way of Greece), she spent thirty-five years in Los Angeles, California. She now lives with many wacky cats in a small town in Vermont, and uses her Armenian sense of humor and her Russian sense of suffering to bake conflicted pirozhki and make art. Vera sold her first story at seventeen, and has been published in numerous anthologies and magazines, honorably mentioned in year's best volumes, and translated into at least eight languages. She made her novelist debut with the critically acclaimed Dreams of the Compass Rose, followed by Lords of Rainbow. Her novella The Clock King and the Queen of the Hourglass made the 2005 Locus Recommended Reading List. Her debut collection Salt of the Air contains the 2007 Nebula Award-nominated "The Story of Love." Other work includes the 2008 Nebula finalist novella The Duke in His Castle, science fiction collection After the Sundial, The Perpetual Calendar of Inspiration, three Jane Austen parodies, Mansfield Park and Mummies, Northanger Abbey and Angels and Dragons, and Pride and Platypus: Mr. Darcy's Dreadful Secret, all part of her Supernatural Jane Austen series, a parody of self-help and supernatural relationships advice, Vampires are from Venus, Werewolves are from Mars: A Comprehensive Guide to Attracting Supernatural Love, Cobweb Bride Trilogy, bestselling series the Atlantis Grail, now optioned for film, which includes Qualify, Compete, Win, and Survive, novellas Aeson: Blue, Aeson: Black, fan guides The Atlantis Grail Companion, and People of the Atlantis Grail.
