Ginn Hale (born April 23, 1968) is an American writer of speculative fiction.

Early life

[edit]

Hale spent a portion of her early childhood living in an off the grid cabin in California. Her father was fond of inventing humorous story-based games around figures from American History, including the game "Assassinate President Taft."[1]

Career

[edit]

Her debut book, Wicked Gentlemen (Blind Eye Books, 2007) is made up of two closely connected novellas blending elements of the steampunk, paranormal, gay romance and suspense genres, and won the 2008 Gaylactic Spectrum Award for best novel, in addition to being selected as a finalist for the Lambda Literary Award the same year. She then collaborated with Astrid Amara and Nicole Kimberling on two shared-world anthologies for Loose Id, called Hell Cop and Hell Cop 2. In 2010, she returned to Blind Eye Books to release the Lord of the White Hell (Cadeleonian series) Books One and Two. In 2011, she released a 10-part serialized novel titled The Rifter. In 2014, Hale extended her Cadeleonian series with Books One and Two of Champion of the Scarlet Wolf. She has also published a number of short stories.

Personal life

Hale now resides on the Pacific Northwest coast of the United States with her wife. She is an avid supporter of Best Friends Animal Society.
