Aiki Flinthart - In memoriam
A beloved voice in Australian speculative fiction, Aiki Flinthart was taken too soon, but her words and wisdom continue to inspire. Fiercely creative and endlessly generous, she left behind a powerful legacy in both her stories and the writing community she so passionately supported.
---
Aiki Flinthart has 11 published speculative fiction novels, including the popular YA series, 80AD, the urban fantasy Shadows trilogy, and the science-fantasy trilogy The Kalima Chronicles. She has edited 2 anthologies of short stories, and has had her own stories shortlisted in the Australian Aurealis Awards, and top-8 finalist listed in the USA Writers of the Future competition.
When not writing or running a full time business, she gives workshops on writing fight scenes, does martial arts, archery, knife-throwing, lute-playing, painting, and belly dancing.
Sometimes she even sleeps.
