Welcome to My World

Barbara V. Evers

Hails from the mysterious Dark Corner of South Carolina where she crafts fantasy stories with strong women matriarchies and clever animals. She is the award-winning author of THE WATCHERS OF MONIAH epic fantasy trilogy (The Watchers of Moniah, The Watchers in Exile, The Watchers at War) as well as numerous published short stories and essays. A two-time winner of the Imadjinn Best Fantasy Novel, she’s won many writing awards over the years including a Pushcart Prize nomination. Her short stories and essays have appeared in multiple issues of The Petigru Review, multiple issues of moonShine review, Childof My Child, Stupefying Stories, A Magnificent Display of Marvelous Wonders, and her own short story collection, Pieces of Her: Being a Woman is Not for the Faint of Heart. She’s currently working on an urban mountain fantasy series, The Matriarch Enchanter, and several other projects.

Barbara is a supporter and advocate for giraffe conservation and seeks to educate others about the giraffe’s silent extinction. As an advocate, Barbara donates a portion of her royalties to the work of The Giraffe Conservation Foundation.

When she’s not writing, Barbara uses her degrees in Zoology and Communication to conduct training workshops for businesses. Maybe she really can speak to animals!

When she’s not writing, developing, or training, Barbara can be found herding her husband, two grandchildren who live with her, and her rescue dog, Roxy (but don’t tell them).
