ⓘ About Emily Tesh

She passes her time in Hertfordshire, teaching Ancient Greek and Latin to schoolkids that have done absolutely nothing to deserve any of it. Emily’s got a husband and cat. Neither one of whom knows any Latin, however that’s not for a lack of trying. Emily is a winner of the World Fantasy Award for Best Novella and the Astounding Award. “Silver in the Wood” was nominated for a John W. Campbell Award for Best Book. “Silver in the Wood” came from sort of an odd place; as she had just trunked a beloved manuscript which was never going to work and felt a bit disillusioned with the entire idea of writing. It was a novel she had spent five years refining and she really could not bear to let it go, but was beginning to realize it was broken on a fundamental level, which made her quite sad.
