Cynthia St. Aubin
Bestselling author Cynthia St. Aubin wrote her first play at age eight and made her brothers perform it for the admission price of gum wrappers. A steal, considering she provided the wrappers in advance. Though her early work debuted to mixed reviews, she never quite gave up on the writing thing, even while earning a mostly useless master's degree in art history and taking her turn as a cube monkey in the corporate warren.
Because the voices in her head kept talking to her, and they discourage drinking at work, she started writing instead. When she's not standing in front of the fridge eating cheese, she's hard at work figuring out which mythological, art historical, or paranormal friends to play with next.
Cynthia delights in making her readers feel seen and celebrated through her writing, with characters that are fun, and wild, and authentic. She hopes her books are a haven for readers who crave smart, spicy paranormal tales that celebrate art history, nerd culture, and the messy, magical creatures we all are—both human and otherwise.
When she’s not standing in front of the fridge eating cheese, she’s hard at work figuring out which mythological, art historical, or paranormal friends to play with next. Love Bites (on sale 9/9/25 from Tor Books) is the first book in her snarky supernatural mystery series, Tails from the Alpha Art Gallery.
that's my mom!
