Tracy Deonn joins the Lit Service Crew to chat about how to use tropes to dig into real issues while making your story timeless.

Tracy Deonn earned her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in communication and performance studies from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She has worked in live theater, video game production, and K–12 education. When she’s not writing, Tracy speaks on panels at science fiction and fantasy conventions, reads fanfic, arranges puppy playdates, and keeps an eye out for ginger-flavored everything.

Tracy is a champion for diversity and representation in science-fiction and fantasy literature and media. And when Tracy’s mother told her that the women in their family were Black Bene Gesserits, she believed her.
