The Letter Mage by Alexandra Penn6/1/2023 “Book” is a bit of a misnomer, though: The Letter Mage is actually a serial on Patreon. It’s about a kid who lives in a contentious lunar university, and while trying to get the departments to stop throwing rockets at each other he accidentally turns into a supervillain. The Letter Mage is a series I’ve been describing as “Gay Hogwarts in space with a little His Dark Materials thrown in for good measure”. My most recent work is the third book in The Letter Mage series. Her work has received many accolades, including an Honorable Mention in the Writer's Digest Annual Contest 2017.ġ. Will you tell us about your most recent published work? Penn is one of two Directors of The Writers' Rooms, an editor for hire, an amateur linguist, and a Taurus. She likes dogs, long walks on the beach, and socialized medicine. She has been bitten by a shark, she watched the final shuttle launch from the fire escape outside Launch Control, and she has been a certified diver since age twelve. Her work is both a love letter to and an intense criticism of the academic world. She also managed to fail Algebra II with a passing grade, which she's a little proud of. The daughter of a photographer and a Scuba diver, she spent her teenage years in the field: Penn has worked with Smithsonian archaeologists, NASA software engineers, volcanologists, and photographers.
