Daniel Okulov is a part-time writer and full-time neurotic from the Washington metropolitan area. Despite considering himself a semireclusive goblin, he is active in online support groups for other LGBT and neurodivergent people, and he advocates for self-acceptance and recovery. He strives to challenge social issues and represent minorities in his writing without limiting himself by genre. He loves his pets more than socializing with new people, but that doesn’t stop him from being a hopeless romantic with a soft spot for heartwarming relationships and happy endings.
