fiction.wikisort.org - WriterKelly Link (born July 19, 1969) is an American editor and author of short stories.[3][4] While some of her fiction falls more clearly within genre categories, many of her stories might be described as slipstream or magic realism: a combination of science fiction, fantasy, horror, mystery, and realism.
