V. F. Mejia has a process for writing that might change the way you show up for your writing! And she’s just funded her first Kickstarter, and Rachael can’t be more excited about this one!
V. F. Mejia is a sapphic fantasy author dedicated to writing for all the Latine sapphics out in the world. With a focus on Peruvian folklore, history, and mythology, her books transport readers to immersive new worlds outside the Western sphere.When she’s not writing she’s hiking through ruins or reading sapphic fantasy/sci-fi or both simultaneously (thank god for audiobooks). Her debut novel The Glory of Gold is fully funded on Kickstarter and will be released March 2026. Find everything here: https://linktr.ee/vfmejia
