edit data

K.R. Hansen has been obsessed with stories—both reading and writing them—for as long as she can remember. With a deep passion for creating narratives that resonate on a profound emotional level, she delights in blending the ordinary with the extraordinary, infusing her tales with magical realism that invites readers to find enchantment in the everyday.

When not crafting tales or daydreaming about her next literary adventure, you’ll discover her traveling, puttering in the garden, creating award-winning fractal art, experiencing the thrill of live concerts—especially 80s bands that resonate with her GenX spirit, and engaging in epic board game battles.

I love Oz reimagining, and this one did not disappoint. Sensual, and a little darker, more adult. I did not see the twist coming. And so should have. I am dying for book two.

“Your darkness is a symphony

Played in explosions of silence to a crowd that has fallen in love with noise

If they refuse to applaud you
It isn't because your music isn't beautiful
It is because they have no idea how to love what they don't understand
And that, my darling, is the most horrific flaw in this mixed up world”
