About the Author

Violet St. Karl's love affair with science fiction and fantasy began at the tender age of four when she was introduced to the film Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, but it took nearly three decades and nudges from the universe to focus on writing.


While living on the Upper West Side of New York, she learned her apartment was the former site of Edgar Allen Poe's farmhouse, where he completed writing the Raven. Although an interesting fact to share, she shrugged it off as coincidence and was unconvinced to give writing and the stories in her head any attention. It wasn't until the following year that her mind changed, as she once again, without prior knowledge, found herself living in the former residence of a famous writer. After learning that not only the flat but the room she was sleeping in belonged to Mercè Rodoreda i Gurguí, a famous Catalan writer; Violet believed it was a bold attempt from the universe to push her to write because coincidence doesn't strike twice.


Upon publishing her first novel in her series, Collection of The Negatives, Violet St. Karl became the first Albanian-American science fiction and fantasy author, and after over a decade in New York, she recently returned to her roots in the Detroit area where is an advocate and proud Ambassador to the Authors Guild in New York.


When not writing or focused on strengthening the local literary community, she is planning which country, city or restaurant to explore next.

Editorial Reviews

I completely enjoyed reading about Liri's journey in finding out how special it is to be a negative..... and not just any negative but an O- with a positive purpose. I will be watching for book #2.

Goodreads

A great read (though I was concerned at one point that it might devolve into a romance novel, which is something I don't like), but it picked right back up and ended with a bang. I can't wait for book two. I'm especially interested in this series since I'm type 0-.
