My name is McKenna.
​
I'm an American-Dutch writer and poet with a fascination for languages, linguistics, history, and sound. I hold degrees in descriptive linguistics as well as creative writing.
​
In my writing, inspired by my own multicultural and multilingual background, I like to explore new worlds that straddle boundaries, whether it be between fiction and reality, the ancient and the modern, the foreign and the familiar, and so on. Some of my stories are miniature teleportation devices, whereas some are built for time travel.
