Nicole Willson has been a frequent visitor to small coastal towns located along the Eastern seaboard but has yet to see anything truly alarming emerge from those waters, much to her disappointment. She’s hopeful that her lifelong aversion to eating fish or seafood might earn her a little mercy when the hungry ocean gods finally start coming ashore. Her Bram Stoker Award-nominated debut novel "Tidepool" is out from Parliament House Press. Her novella "The Shadow Dancers of Brixton Hill" is coming from Cemetery Gates Media in 2023, and her YA novel "The Keeper of the Key" is forthcoming in Fall 2024. Her short fiction has appeared in Cemetery Gates Media and on Medium.
