Tara King writes queer horror, fantasy, and romance. Usually not at the same time.
Tara is a graduate of Mary Robinette Kowal’s Short Story Cohort (2024) and Taos Toolbox (2024), and a member of Codex.
Tara’s writing has appeared on the Walker Art Center blog, Pantheon.io, Jersey Devil Press, Drupal Diversity, Poetry SuperHighway, Mad King Thomas’ blog, as well as on stages around Minneapolis and the world. Their performance works have won awards and grants from a whole pile of people. And Tara’s zines have found a home at Santa Fe Zine Fest & ABQ Zine Fest.
Tara lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
