MEGAN LANDON, SPICY SF AUTHOR!
When Linda attended Getting Witchy With It In Salem in September 2025, she was told she would be a Sunday author (aw), would be sharing a table with someone else (aw), and it would be Table 13 (OK! I can live with that!). Linda's table-mate was from Houston (Megan Landon is her pen name), in New England attending a wedding (the wedding party were her PAs!) She and Linda found they had several things in common, including a love of writing science fiction. Linda writes adventure fiction, but Megan's is spicier - think XXXenophile without the pictures! (Please note: Like other "spicy" romance authors, the book covers clearly state that it is intended for mature audiences 18 years of age or older.)
Here's the skinny on this amazing author, cribbed from her web site:
Megan Landon is an Austin-based writer of erotic fantasy and sci-fi romance. Her intricately woven stories are inspired by nature, science, language, her Columbian and Dutch roots, her linguistic training, and magic. Megan especially loves to play with the shades of nuance that exist between light and dark, magic and reality, and truth and fiction. She has a PhD in linguistics.
Megan’s erotic flash fiction has appeared in Bust Magazine, she is a regular collaborator with the Erotica Consortium, and her work has received numerous awards.
Midsummer and Mycelium was a 2024 Passionate Plume Finalist for Speculative Short. Of Broken Bots and Tempting Techs received a Literally Lovesick Star Recommendation.
