Stephanie Adams-Santos is a Guatemalan-American writer whose work spans poetry, prose, and screenwriting. Often grappling with themes of strangeness and belonging, their work reflects a fascination with the weird, numinous and primal forces that shape inner life. They are the author of several full length poetry collections and chapbooks, including DREAM OF XIBALBA (selected by Jericho Brown as winner of the 2021 Orison Poetry Prize and finalist for a 2024 Oregon Book Award) and SWARM QUEEN'S CROWN (finalist for a Lambda Literary Award). Stephanie served as Staff Writer and Story Editor on the television anthology horror series TWO SENTENCE HORROR STORIES (Netflix), and was winner of a 2022 Gold Telly Award in TV Writing. They have received grants and fellowships from Sundance, Film Independent, Vermont Studio Center, Regional Arts and Culture Council, and Oregon Arts Commission. In addition to their literary work, Stephanie is illustrating an original Major Arcana tarot deck called Tarot de La Selva.

Their personal history of early online music fandom, Tori Amos Bootleg Webring, was published in 2021 as part of Instar Books’ Remember the Internet series. With Marisa Crawford, they co-edited the anthology We Are the Baby-Sitters Club: Essays and Artwork from Grown-Up Readers (Chicago Review Press, 2021); with KJ Cerankowski, they co-edited the academic volume Asexualities: Feminist and Queer Perspectives (Routledge, 2014; revised and expanded second edition published in 2024). Their essays and criticism have been published in The New York Times, 4Columns, Bookforum, and other venues. They live in Brooklyn and also teach writing at The New School and in the Low-Residency Creative Writing MFA program at Pacific Northwest College of Art.
