Tatum Orla, a literary artisan hailing from the sunburnt landscapes of Australia, has long been enthralled by the celestial ballet of stars, the art of narrative alchemy, and the cryptic allure of antiquated cartography. Her inaugural foray into the realm of speculative fiction, The Starlit Veil, unfurls as a richly woven tapestry of mythopoeic enchantment, arcane wonder, and the poignant metamorphosis of youth. When not immersed in the architecture of imagined worlds, Tatum may be found traversing tempestuous coastal paths, curating esoteric fragments of folkloric tradition, or indulging in an arguably excessive devotion to steeped infusions. She shares her abode with a feline companion of insatiable curiosity and an ever-expanding archive of notebooks—each a portal to realms yet uncharted. You can reach her at https://www.tatumorla.com.
