Gwen Tolios, Author

After bouncing around the world, Gwen Tolios has settled in Chicago to write and coax her cat into cuddles. A magical ace unicorn, she writes short stories and novels for anyone who likes to read.

Part of the queer community, Gwen likes to fill her stories with diverse rep and strong characters. She’s always on the hunt for more stories with asexual leads, both for her own interests and for her ace bookclub. You can join them on Fable or check out past reads. 

Gwen Tolios started writing in the 3rd grade, but didn’t land her first publishing contract until much later in 2018. Since then, she’s been published in various anthologies and short story markets, starting with Water Childe on The Overcast podcast and most recently the story collection Healing Crystals & Other Breakables.  She’s also published a contemporary aroace sapphic romance with Nine Star Press.

Outside of writing, Gwen works a day job full of numbers and performs with a local circus troop as an amateur aerialist.
