Rhonda Parrish
Author, Editor and Hydra-tamer
I have the attention span of a magpie and am constantly distracted by shiny things.
I’m the editor of many anthologies and author of plenty of books, stories and poems. I live with my husband and our three cats in Edmonton, Alberta, where I can often be found playing Dungeons and Dragons, bingeing crime dramas, doing crafty stuff or cheering on the Oilers.
As for that ‘hydra-taming’ thing? I call my to-do list The Hydra because every time I knock one thing off it two more spring up in its place. If you check out the illustrations spread across this website you may discover a story about how I went from a hydra-slayer to a hydra-tamer 🙂
My Patreon is the best way to keep up with everything I’m doing and support my work.
Every patron at every single level gets behind-the-scenes access and information, cover reveals and announcements ahead of the general public, dozens of short stories and poems and even full-length novels and anthologies.

G is for Ghosts Release
There's a lot going on in my little bubble right now and it's certainly not all good. But this is. This book is. I'm super pleased that the seeds I planted so many months ago have bloomed into this book today. When I need a little goodness the most. And, as it...
Trenchcoats, Towers and Trolls Pre-orders (Now with free shipping!)
What do you get when you take the high tech/low life settings of cyberpunk and sprinkle them with the magic and possibilities of fairy tales? Trolls under teleportation bridges, masquerades held in virtual reality, princely avatars, giants and dwarves alongside...
Dark Waters
Dark Waters hits the shelves today! This is one of the shorter anthologies I've ever put out, but it packs a big punch. A big punch of darkness. I'm really enjoying all the early reviews which are like, "Oh. They said this was dark but, lemme tell you, this is dark!"...
“Rhonda Parrish is a shapeshifter with talents to match her every incarnation- magpie tenacity for picking the shiniest submissions, nightingale notes for crafting tales, and bright, feline eyes for seeking out her photographic subjects. She balances on the knife-edge of darkness and light, a sorceress of both realms.”
