Selena Mallory wants you to know that this is her least favorite prompt but it is also necessary so she’s accepted that. She lives where she was born and raised and that’s the good ol’ Midwest- specifically, outside of Cleveland, OH. She’s been writing poetry and other genres since she was 10 and now she’s writing like it’s her job.

In early 2026, she had to say goodbye to her beloved first doghter of almost 15 years, Peanut Butter who is featured in Purple Summer, Gray Fall but the universe quickly sent her an equally crazy, feisty new dog, a yorkie she’s named Stefan Urquelle Mallory.

Selena also likes Moscato, Tito’s, comedy, horror, intellectual curiosity, feminism, justice in action and breakfast food.
