S. Usher Evans was born and raised in Pensacola, Florida. After spending a decade working as an IT consultant in Washington, DC, she decided that fighting dragons was more fun than writing policy and moved back to Pensacola to write books full-time. She currently lives there with her husband and kids, and can frequently be found plotting her next story on the beach.

Evans writes across a wide range of fantasy and science fiction subgenres. Her cozy fantasy catalog includes The Weary Dragon Inn, a series about an amnesiac innkeeper solving mysteries in a small village, as well as the Pobyd Perfections Bakery and Firewing Investigations series. On the young adult side, her Princess Vigilante series about a princess who moonlights as a masked crime-fighter won the 2019 Florida Author Project YA Book of the Year, and The Seod Croi Chronicles took the same award in 2022.

Her earlier works include the Razia series, a space pirate adventure following a woman living a double life as a scientist and bounty hunter, the Demon Spring and Demon Fall urban fantasy trilogies, the Lexie Carrigan Chronicles, and the Madion War Trilogy. She publishes through her own imprint, Sun’s Golden Ray Publishing.
