Johanna van Veen

Johanna van Veen grew up in the Netherlands with her two sisters; they are triplets and although not identical, they share a strong bond. She earned both an MA in English Literature and Digital Media from Leiden University. Johanna is the author of My Darling Dreadful Thing, which won the 2025 British Fantasy Award for Best Horror, Blood on Her Tongue, and Bone of My Bone, as well as the middle-grade novel The Witch of Hagstone Hill, the first installment of The Triplets Grim trilogy. When not writing, she enjoys spending time with her wife, her sisters, and her dog, though not necessarily all at the same time.
