What if Wonderland was a parasite that fed on your desires? Every night, I wake up from the same dream: a vibrating nightclub with melting walls, no way out, and the taste of someone I've never met still burning on my tongue. Every day, the shadow only I can see claws at my skull, screaming that I'm slipping again. He says it's all fake, that I should forget it, forget Them, and focus only on Him. But for the first time, He's wrong. I just have to find it again. Find Them again. We are meant to be together. Even if They don't know it yet. Glowrot is a queer psychological horror novel written by Venezuelan author Beatrice Lebrun. It mixes found family gone wrong, toxic obsession, and a twisted version of Alice in Wonderland. It's got toxic longing, liminal spaces, and nonbinary representation at the heart of the story. It follows Bo, a bisexual Latina unraveling into obsession, dissociation, and a surreal nightclub that might not be real, all in her desperate, delusional search for someone who doesn't want to be found.

Beatrice Lebrun writes the kind of stories that make people cry, scream, or whisper "I shouldn't relate to this."She's an author and illustrator obsessed with emotional horror, queer longing, and the quiet devastation of being alive.Born in Venezuela and now based in the U.S., Beatrice grew up living in another world entirely. Dealing with intense maladaptive daydreaming since a very young age, she spent her childhood caught between realities: one mundane and expected, the other wild, dangerous, and hers. When the world demanded she stay grounded, she turned to writing, just to keep the other realities aliveGlowrot, her debut novel in English is deeply personal to her; a love letter to the versions of herself she never got to be, and a cautionary tale she once needed to hear. Her protagonists are raw, flawed, and cathartic reflections of her own wounds. If someone wants to call that a self-insert, she's not offended. It just means they've never needed to write themselves back together.When she's not writing about haunted girls and broken realities, she's helping others do the same as the Creative Director of StoryForge, where she builds safe spaces for writers and stories that don't fit the mold.You'll usually find her drawing, dancing, dreaming, or whispering to her characters like they're real people. (Sometimes, they whisper back.)
