Halle Merrick
Halle Merrick (she/they) is a YA writer, often of Sapphic witches existing in times and worlds that do not care or Sapphics or witches.. They hold a Bachelors in Creative Writing and a Masters in Professional Writing from Falmouth University, and are currently undertaking research into societal responses and behaviours to witches and queer identities at times when these identities were most heavily persecuted. They are the founder and editor of Haunted Words Press, and their work has been published in Icebreakers Lit, Filter Coffee Zine, and Toil & Trouble Literary Magazine, among others. They would very much like to live in a haunted house with a legion of ghost cats one day. She can be found on her Twitter @halle_merrick, her Instagram @hallemaem, or her email at hallemaem@gmail.com.
