Chin Yuqin Casey is an artist and writer obsessed with creatures, whimsy, and other worlds. Her art has been exhibited in London, Venice, and Singapore, and her writing lives mostly in ill-kept journals — but sometimes worms its way into books like this. Two of her stories can be found in Atelier Arcadia’s anthologies, “Other Worlds” and “Good Girls Bad Ends.”
“Knight Alight” marks Casey’s solo debut as a published writer.
