Daphne Vermeer - Episode 4

Welcome back to So You're an Author! Today's guest is Daphne Vermeer. Daphne A. Vermeer is an author of literary speculative fiction that explores the everyday consequences and moral complexities of extraordinary circumstances. Her character-driven stories blend genre work and European literary realism traditions, following protagonists who navigate supernatural worlds while grappling with very human concerns – from ancient vampires attending church to monster hunters worrying about rent money. Set across Europe, her work finds psychological depth in the spaces between the magical and the mundane. Daphne has settled in Belgium with her Greek husband, overly energetic dog, and more houseplants than is probably advisable. Find them on their socials and their books are on their website!
