Claudie Arseneault
Claudie is an asexual and aromantic-spectrum writer hailing from the mostly-francophone Quebec City. The stories of her heart revolve around platonic affections, especially friendship and families, and her love for sprawling casts invariably turns her novels into multi-storylined wonders. She is a founding member of The Kraken Collective as well as an editor for Common Bonds: An Aromantic Speculative Anthology. Claudie is also well-known for her database of aro and ace characters and her unending love of squids.
