ⓘ About Simon Jimenez
Simon Jimenez is a science fiction author best known for writing “The Vanished Birds.” Jimenez was a lover of genre fiction from a very young age when he used to devour anything that was not anchored in reality. For much of his childhood, he did research on award-winning novels from each year and then proceeded to read those titles. But even as he was influenced by the iconic works he was reading, he sensed that something was absent from the works; as a queer person of mixed-race background, he could not see himself in any of them. Most of the characters were white and straight and no one represented his own experience. His debut “The Vanished Birds” is thus an attempt at representing his experiences while exercising his love for science fiction.
