Norees Gasper
Norees Gasper was born and raised in Canada, settling in Vancouver on the West Coast with her many books and plants. Named after the one and only Kira Nerys from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, her love of fantasy began early and drove her to start writing stories as soon as she could pick up a pen. Norees holds a BA in History and Religious Studies, an MA in Public Policy and an MA in Library and Information Studies. When she’s not writing, you can find her probably watching too much TV, buying herself a little sweet treat or escaping to the forest. The Arcane Archives is her debut novel.
