Nothing but walking again matters. Then she takes her first steps and realises she has to find somewhere to go.

Aska J. Naiman

Aska J Naiman is an English Literature MA graduate with a lot of story ideas and not enough time to write them. She is primarily interested in transformation. The transformative power of fiction in people's lives, the transformations we all go through as we grow. What happens when you become a werewolf? And when you become a member of the opposite sex sometimes the same way other people sit or stand? Changing is in the very nature of being alive and Aska thinks we all want to be a little better, a little different than we are, a little more daring and sexier and braver. Maybe we can and maybe we can't, but in books everything is possible and there are no limits. She alternates between m/m and f/m shifter stories (okay, that once) and f/f young adult coming of age stories about girls who are different in more ways than one. She's currently working on the story of L, music aficionado Venezuelan adoptee rebelling against her English parents who meets the apparently perfect teacher's pet and talented painted, Kai, only to discover Kai hasn't got it as easy as she'd imagine.
