Bernie Jean Schiebeling (she/they) is a speculative fiction author whose earliest memory of storytelling ends with her mother saying, “Oh no…really?” A recent graduate of the University of Kansas’ Creative Writing MFA, they now live in the Midwest, where they write about uncanny experiences, family histories, and brief moments of comfort. She’s been published in The Deadlands, with forthcoming work in Reckoning and The Future Fire. She’s also the script editor for the SF narrative podcast Gastronaut.
In their free time, they enjoy sewing, gaming, and zinemaking. They are (slowly) getting better at roller skating.
