My name is Emily (pen name E.J. Babb). I’m an author and blogger with a particular love for dark science fiction and horror stories.
In 2012 (with a lot of help from Shelf Abuse) I created Dystopic as an outlet for my love of the devastatingly savage yet perpetually hopeful world of dystopian fiction. I continue to write about bleak books and movies, only now with more horror stuff mixed in.
My debut novel, These Unnatural Men, was released in 2018. You can read the first chapter for free on Dystopic. I have also written a collection of dark sci-fi short stories, FOREGROUND, and a Christmas folk horror novella, The Festivities of Morkwood.
