About Yume (she/her)

​

Yume is an author of speculative fiction represented by Mary C. Moore at Aevitas Creative Management. She's published two books, The Deep Sky and The Stardust Grail (Flatiron Books/Harper Voyager UK) and a third, Saltcrop,  is forthcoming in 2025. Her film/tv agent is Addison Duffy at United Talent Agency (UTA).

​​

She is half-Japanese and half-American and grew up in a space between two cultures -- the same space where here stories reside.

​​

She's been writing since she was little, because she was afraid of the dark. (She's still afraid of the dark.)

​​

She graduated from Stuyvesant High School and Princeton University and lives in Brooklyn with two cats, Boondoggle and Filibuster.
