Constance Brewer is a writer, poet, and artist who blends mythic imagination with grounded emotional depth. She creates worlds shaped by family, sacrifice, and impossible choices, along with contemporary poetry that explores the quiet strangeness of everyday life. Whether she’s building new realms or capturing a perfect image in paint or ink, Constance approaches every project with curiosity, humor, and a deep love of storytelling.
Constance’s work ranges from epic and urban fantasy to poetry, essays, and the occasional piece of space‑tinged mischief. She loves stories that mix science, myth, and emotional puzzles, and her characters tend to wander into unforgiving dilemmas, whether or not they intended to. Her writing has appeared in a variety of journals and anthologies over the years, and she’s always juggling new projects, some large, some small, all fueled by curiosity and a streak of wonder.
She is the co‑founder and editor of Gyroscope Review poetry magazine, Publisher of Gyroscope Press, and has served as a judge for multiple poetry contests, helping champion unknown voices and the literary conversations she cares about. When she’s not writing or editing, she can usually be found weaving, printmaking, or attempting to reduce Wyoming’s dramatic vistas to a woodcut, etching, or photograph, while the Cowcat supervises but pretends not to care.
My debut epic fantasy novel, The Demigod’s Daughter, is now available on Amazon.
10 Things About Me
- I’m a former U.S. Army Corps of Engineers officer—yes, I’ve built things, and yes, I’ve blown things up.
- I write epic fantasy, urban fantasy, some space opera, poetry, and the occasional essay when the mood strikes.
- I edit Gyroscope Review and run Gyroscope Press, where I champion contemporary poetry.
- I have degrees in Fine Art and Philosophy, which means I can both paint a landscape and argue with it.
- I live in Wyoming, where the sunrises are spectacular, and the corgis insisted on supervising all photography attempts.
- I collect art supplies with the enthusiasm of a dragon hoarding gold—especially paper.
- I love weaving and printmaking, which are basically worldbuilding in textile and ink form.
- I’m fascinated by the intersection of science and magic, and it shows up in almost everything I write.
- My characters tend to make impossible choices, probably because I enjoy giving them emotional puzzles to solve.
- I believe stories are the best way to build—and occasionally blow up—a world.
