Rick Hollon

Rick Hollon (they/fey) is a nonbinary, intersex, queer writer, editor, nature photographer, and parent currently living in the eastern United States. Fey is the founding editor of Farther Trees: A Magazine of Fantasy, as well as the Queer Blades and Mesozoic Reader anthologies.
== Early Life ==
Born in Dayton, Ohio, they spent much of my childhood semi-homeless, living in a car shuttling back and forth across the United States. At various times in my childhood and teens, fey called Florida, Arizona, Colorado, and New Mexico home.
== Goals ==
Fey want to publish standalone fantasy novels and series, as well as short stories and poetry in a variety of small press and professional magazines.
== Philosophy ==
On their philosophy, Rick said, "I want to tell personal stories of lower-class characters navigating secondary world settings, examining how ordinary people make use of the choices and agency available to them. Tales of the powerful don't interest me. I'm also drawn to the interrelationships of people, nature, and the magic that connects them all."
== Inspirations ==
The degree of talent and dynamic storytelling in modern fantasy is as intimidating as it is inspiring according to Hollon. Authors like N. K. Jemisin, E. Lily Yu, and Jo Walton are telling complex, literary stories that make full use of the genre's potential. Fey aspire to create such fully-realized characters and lovely prose in their own writings.
