Bio variants
Short
Sebastian Michaels is a cosmic horror author and photographer creating story worlds built from haunted Americana, folklore, and analog transmission motifs. His work includes The Crown of Glass and the interactive web book The Astral Annex.
Medium
Sebastian Michaels is a cosmic horror author and photographer whose work blends haunted Americana, folklore, and the uneasy logic of analog transmissions. His narrative poetry collection The Crown of Glass follows a trail of voices, constellations, and field recordings across the Palouse. He also builds The Astral Annex, an interactive web book that lets readers dial into an archive of poems and fragments.
Long
Sebastian Michaels writes cosmic horror with a rural pulse: haunted highways, small towns, folklore, and the persistent feeling that the sky is listening. His narrative poetry collection The Crown of Glass is structured like a constellation, connecting poems into a single story of pursuit, disappearance, and transmissions that should not exist. Alongside the book, he maintains Signals, a broadcast-style journal of essays and field notes, and The Astral Annex, an interactive web book designed as a rotary reader that opens a catalog of poems and archived fragments. He also photographs liminal landscapes across the Palouse and builds physical artifacts that behave like props from the story.
