Celia Neri was born in 1978 on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea in a multicultural family. She studied Comparative Literature in Paris before coming back to Southern France where she now lives.

A lifelong science-fiction and fantasy reader, she realised in early 2017 she also had stories to tell and started creative writing, often with an emphasis on characters who reflect aspects of her own identity.

Her short stories have been published in Apex Magazine, Three Crows Magazine, and The Café Irreal, among others.
