About me

R.E.M. Verberg - fantasy author

I love to write dark worlds with little sparks of love and connection.

After being a writing coach and copywriter for over ten years, I’m now spreading my wings as a fantasy author. Currently, I run the podcast Far-Fetched Stories and am working on a duology called A Song Discordant.

If you’re into authors like Robin Hobb, Ursula Le Guin and N.K. Jemisin, you’ll probably like my work.

FRIENDS. Don't know how I would have done this mov FRIENDS. Don't know how I would have done this move without them.

I'm literally in my new 'bedroom' (second picture) right now while my friends are putting together the couch and my other friend is cleaning the wardrobe.
.
It is rare for me to behave so 'ill' around other people, and probably testament to how much I trust them. There is no universe in which I, as a chronically ill person, could have done this on my own. 
Everything is new and strange and difficult, but I still have love in my life and I'm so thankful for it. ❤️

And I literally couldn't have done it without you, my listeners!

First monthly standalone story is published now: About owning your own power, and what happens if you don't. Written in collaboration with you❤️ Very proud of this one. It's the top link in my bio, enjoy!!
.
If you want to help decide which story I write next, the October poll will be up till next week. See https://remverberg.com or my latest poll post (the yellow one:)).

This story was quite emotional to write and I'm really happy to be able to share it with you.
