Anesha Griffiths

Writer

Anesha Griffiths (she/her) is a fiction writer living in the Pacific Northwest with her wife and a small flock of oddball chickens. As a mixed-race queer woman raised just north of London, she’s always been drawn to reading and writing stories that feature intersectional diversity and a snarky sense of humour. When not writing, she runs her own business in between shifts as an emergency nurse. She also enjoys singing, tinkering with her 1969 Morris Minor, and lazing on the couch with her cats. 

Writing

Charlotte Jones has gone to a lot of trouble to create an authentically cis identity. Not even her long time girlfriend, Jess, knows her past. She's been keeping a low profile, working at her friend’s company.

 

But her life is thrown into disarray when her girlfriend’s less than legal job puts them both in danger. Suddenly her carefully built existence is a liability and her only strengths are the fragile relationships she's built. Charlotte has to navigate a coming out she never expected to have, finding unexpected allies along the way as she and Jess fight to save their lives and end a years-long conspiracy.

When Erika got a biotech job at Neuragene she thought she'd got it made. But like most things in life, it turns out it's not as good as it seemed, and the plush job came with a catch she decided she couldn’t live with.

 

Now it’s 2031 and for Erika Morgen survival is a game of invisibility. In a United States that’s continued to become increasingly hostile to trans people, Erika’s living a quiet life as a researcher, a wife, and a mother. But she’s hiding more than her deadname and former gender. She is the geneticist who fled a corporate lab after creating a virus designed to rewrite the human body.

 

Now, the past has woken up and is threatening her quiet life. The fascist government and corporate CDC spread misinformation and hunt for her former identity, but Erika knows the terrifying truth: the pandemic is her creation, and it’s spreading like wildfire.

 

Erika has to thread the needle of staying hidden while a billionaire ex-boss hunts for her and the world around her collapses; all while managing the mounting guilt of the fire she started. With her family’s safety on the line Erika must decide if she wants to fix the virus or run before the state or her former boss destroys her world.
