About Victoria Blackwell

Who? Well, exactly. At the moment, I'm just some IT professional who, one day in 2023, decided to write that book she'd had in her head for years. Then became obsessed. Chances are, I'll forget to update this page when I'm infamous and this will either look quaint or hideously narcissistic. Rest assured, I won't let it go to my head . Probably.

So what can you expect? My writing is known for its immersive detail, raw emotions, sharp dialogue, and dry, occasionally dark humour. In all my books you will find characters you can't help but love despite their many flaws. 

Each story has a romantic element, although none could ever be called a romance. Every tale features an LGBTQ+ protagonist, yet their identity is never the story. Okay, maybe it was Zida's story for a while, but she became the embodiment of life itself and outlived anyone with a problem.

Finally, having queried widely, I took my fate into my own hands and began to self-publish in 2025. Not content with pushing my own books to the heights they deserve to be at, I started an independent press to drag other ignored (for all the wrong reasons) authors with me. Too safe, too pacey, too genre-flexing for the rigid industry? Head over to Libranima Press. If you're that good, you're in!
