Sev Romero

Bio

Sev Romero is a writer based on Ngunnawal Country (Canberra, Australia). Sev enjoys writing dark speculative fiction novels and short stories that hold a mirror up to today’s world. These tales feature gripping plots, authentic characters, and a healthy dose of social commentary and dark humour.

​

Sev grew up in the outer suburbs of Canberra, crammed with his 5 siblings in a 3 bedroom government house. With little money, a trip away consisted of renting a b-grade film or borrowing a book from the school library. Thankfully this upbringing empowered Sev to travel beyond the suburban realm through his love of reading and writing.

​

In particular, dark uncompromising science fiction, fantasy, and horror. From the written works of Orwell to King, to films like Mad Max, Akira and Evil Dead.

​

Sev’s inspirations today include James S. A. Corey, N. K. Jemisin, Cormac McCarthy, and Margaret Atwood.

​

Sev is also a strong advocate for equality and the environment, and these themes often feature in his work.

​

When not writing, Sev enjoys spending time with his 3 children, cheering on his football team, listening to music, and unwinding with a video game.
