About the Author
**Lecheler Doreen** is a science fiction writer and speculative biologist with over fifteen years of experience in worldbuilding and narrative design. She holds a Bachelor’s in Biology from the University of Freiburg and a Master’s in Science Communication from the University of British Columbia. Her work has appeared in *Analog Science Fiction and Fact*, *Clarkesworld*, and *Lightspeed* magazines, where her stories often explore the intersection of evolutionary ecology and alien sociology.
She is the author of the *Galactic Ecology* series (three novels) and the nonfiction guide *Alien Minds: Psychology Beyond Humanity*. Her short story “The Symbiont’s Bargain” was a finalist for the Hugo Award for Best Short Story in 2021. Doreen also serves as a consultant for film and game studios, helping creators build plausible extraterrestrial cultures for projects ranging from independent RPGs to major streaming series. She runs the popular YouTube channel *Alien Architect*, where she deconstructs the biology of famous science fiction aliens and proposes alternative designs based on known science.
Her passion for worldbuilding began as a child reading the *Xenology* series by Robert Freitas, and she has since dedicated her career to bridging the gap between scientific rigor and compelling storytelling. She lives in Berlin with her cat, Schrödinger, and a growing collection of exoplanet art. When not writing, she can be found hiking in the Black Forest, imagining the life forms that might exist on the other side of the galaxy.
