SE Smyth

S.E. Smyth is inspired by history and stories that have not been told, pulling words from true events, her lived experience, and education in history. With her wife, she travels when the air is right, spins 78 RPM records, and takes frequent brisk walks. S.E. writes the stories that are hard to tell. Her accounts are never exactly how they happened, and she firmly believes it is reparative to reimagine.

S.E. has published two novels with NineStar Press, Hope for Spring (2023) and Criminal by Proxy (2022). Her most recent book, In the Woods (2023) was published by Spectrum Books. Recent short work can be found on Scarlet (Jaded Ibis Press 2023) and Stone of Madness Press (2024).
