About

Adria Bailton spends her day focusing on the nuclei of atoms, and imagines entire worlds and universes to share. 

Her first published poetry and short fiction were in her high school's fiction magazine some decades ago. Her first paid short fiction was in 2021 to Wyldblood Flash. Her piece at Constelación Magazine is available in both English and Spanish. Adria is an Associate Member of the SFWA.

Writing from the U.S. Pacific Northwest and the traditional territory of several Indigenous nations, including the Stillaguamish, Suquamish, and Duwamish, she lives with a couple human roommates, a few axolotls, several fish, and two dogs.
