katrina galvez

Katrina Galvez is an American fiction and poetry writer. In 2014 she won the SFASU undergraduate literary journal, Humid’s New Best Voice Award for her sestina Paper Cups. She also had several other poems and short fiction pieces published in Humid during her time at the university. Spending the first two and a half decades of her life in North Texas, she grew up on a steady diet of science-fiction and fantasy novels as well as video games of all kinds. With an abiding love for forests, mountains, rivers, magic, and old cities with lurking secrets, she also spent a lot of childhood wishing for an escape from the metal and asphalt newness of the suburbs she found herself in. She now works on her current projects from her home in Sacramento, California. She can often be found there with her head in a book, video game, or notebook and an iced coffee or milk tea leaving a ring of perspiration on whatever hard surface is nearby.
