Alex got their start in prose, not just as a writer but as an artist in general. It’s where their heart belongs, to this day. Beginning with quirky tales of unicorns and outer space, Alex has since changed their tune but never left the speculative behind. They consider their specialty to be the #OwnVoices Fantasy genre, specifically of the YA/Adult/General Audience niches.
