KRISTEN ROSS

Writer and author of middle-grade fantasy-adventure

Join me to enter an enchanting world of Great Adventure and Ancient Magic.

Three people dressed in elaborate Venetian Carnival costumes and ornate masks pose for a photo in San Marco Square. The central figure wears a traditional 18th-century tricorn hat and cloak, flanked by a woman on the left who wears a light-up pink ruffled gown and leaf-shaped mask, while the woman on the right wears a brown fur-trimmed cape and a feathered hat.

Ahoy, Digital Wayfarer!

My name is Kristen, but many of my friends call me Kristina (mostly because they are Italian or Greek and either can't pronounce Kristen or don't want to). A writer and author of middle-grade fantasy-adventure, I have spent the better part of the last decade working on a series of novels that take place in Venice.

While publication is in the works, I invite you to join me on a wild ride through the 'making of the adventure' by signing up for my newsletter, Chasing Magic.

Within its pages, you will get a front row seat to my years of research, fascinating historical anecdotes, and plenty of educational material you can share with the young people in your life.

Let's chase some magic...

Get whisked away on an adventure to the Floating City and beyond.
