A.B. Channing

Dark Fantasy & Horror Author

You are looking at a picture of my face. Not my real face; I don't like posting that on the internet. I'm a white guy with brown hair and blue eyes. The button-up is for show; I spend most of my time in sweatpants. Ignore the fire behind me. Blame the cat.

About Me

You can call me August, but I will also be summoned by cool pond bugs and/or pictures of cats.

I’m a queer spec fic writer with a fondness for tossing characters into things they think they aren’t prepared for. Most of my work is Dark Fantasy or Horror, but I cross paths with Sci-Fi, Paranormal, and Romance more often than not. If my books have anything in common, it’s wild settings, happy endings, casual rep, and kickass disaster queers being disasters but also kickass!

In the normal world, I work in environmental engineering, wait on two cats, and keep Carassius and Corixidae in outdoor aquaria. I am five years old inside.

I wasn’t kidding about the pond bugs.
