Author's Bio

Tinamarie Cox was born and raised in New York City. She currently lives in Arizona with her husband, two children, and a one-eyed cat. Her written and visual work has appeared in numerous publications under genres from literary to horror to science fiction. She likes too many different things to settle into a single category. She enjoys reading, writing, painting, listening to music, and doting on her pirate-kitty. Tinamarie's first full-length poetry collection will be released through Nymeria Publishing in December 2024, Through A Sea Laced With Midnight Hues. She is always working on more poetry.
