Serena Kaylor

Serena Kaylor likes to write about that first flush of summer love, whispered conversations at midnight, and endings happy enough to make your toes curl. She grew up running wild as a changeling through North Carolina swamps and hiding in bookstacks until she was dragged back into the real world.

Through a weird twist of fate, she wandered from libraries into medicine, and spends her days with trauma surgery and her nights with romcoms. When she’s not writing, she can be found experimenting in her kitchen, wallpapering any blank surface, and hugging every dog that will let her.

Her debut novel, LONG STORY SHORT was published by Wednesday Books 07/2022. Her next novel THE CALCULATION OF YOU + ME comes out Spring 2024. She is represented by Jim McCarthy at Dystel, Goderich & Bourret.
