About Angela Slatter
She has come to be known for penning stories that are spinoffs of traditional tales in the mold of Angela Carter. Her works range from single-standing novels, series, collections of short fiction, novellas, and contributions to series by other authors. When she got older, she started reading for herself, adding in religion, folk tales, history, and mythology, as she gathered a treasure chest of information. Later on, she attended the University of Queensland, where she graduated with a degree in history and French, as she intended to go into academia and teach. By the time Angela Slatter was 37, she knew she had to give writing a real go as she did not want to be 50 and have regrets.
