Arden Powell is a Canadian author and illustrator. A nebulous entity, they live with a small terrier and an exorbitant number of houseplants, and have conversations with both.

So far they have written fantasy, sci fi, southern gothic, horror, historical fantasy, and multiple subgenres of romance. They intend to eventually write in every single SFFH genre possible. Everything they write is queer.

Where I’ve Been and What I’m Doing

Hello hello! It’s been a minute since I posted here. Almost a year, in fact. I didn’t mean to neglect my blog for so long, but I started a newsletter to replace it, and this place fell by the wayside. So it goes.

Quotes by Arden Powell  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“They paused on the threshold and Johnny turned to him, his gaze searching. He looked less like the devil then, his eyes wide and earnest, but Milton wrote that Lucifer knew how to cry.”
Arden Powell, The Bayou

“His only shortcoming was a lamentable lack of grey matter, which he took in stride, cheerfully proclaiming that while he might not have two brain cells to rub together, he was dim enough that he didn't notice their lack.”
Arden Powell, The Bachelor's Valet

“He looked less like the devil then, his eyes wide and earnest, but Milton wrote that Lucifer knew how to cry.”
Arden Powell, The Bayou
