Biography

A salty-tongued, tattooed mystic, T. Thorn Coyle (They/Them) is author of the The Seashell Cove Paranormal Mysteries, the nine book urban fantasy series The Witches of Portland, the alt history urban fantasy series The Panther Chronicles, and the epic fantasy series The Steel Clan Saga. Thorn’s non-fiction books include Sigil Magic for Writers, Artists & Other Creatives, Kissing the Limitless, Make Magic of Your Life, and Evolutionary Witchcraft. Thorn also released four albums of chants and songs, several short story collections, and their work appears in many magazines and anthologies.

Thorn has taught magical practice in nine countries, on four continents, and in twenty-five states. Their other occupations have been numerous, and include working four years each on the Pacific Stock Options exchange (as a young Anarchist punk with a blue, flat-top Mohawk), in a woman-run peep show, and full time in the San Francisco soup kitchen they ended up volunteering at for twenty years. All of this, along with a dedication to social justice, informs Thorn’s fiction.

An interloper to the Pacific Northwest, Thorn joyfully stalks city streets, and talks to crows, squirrels, and trees. Thorn prefers they/them pronouns but isn’t offended by she or he.
