When she’s not writing or working as a literary agent, you can find her spending time with her amazing husband and adorable child, catching up on her shows, and working in her garden in California. The End of Us is her first dystopian novel.T.A. Chan is a human being trying to live her best life on this floating piece of space rock. With a passion for anything that is wonderfully weird, fantasy and sci-fi books quickly became her favorite genres to play in. She enjoys crafting character-focused stories that explore the human experience, as well as plots that twist and challenge expectations. Her insatiable curiosity of the natural world inspires much of her writing. When she’s not typing away, she’s probably begging her plants not to die and spoiling the dog. She also has an unhealthy obsession with manatees, triangles, and dark chocolate.
