Nerine Dorman

Born somewhere during the late 70s, Nerine Dorman has been writing since she could hold onto a pen. Apart from writing horror and fantasy, she is currently employed as a sub-editor at a newspaper publisher and runs a writers' guild for science fiction, fantasy and horror writers in her home town, Cape Town. She also edits and lays out The Egyptian Society of South Africa's quarterly newsletter, SHEMU. She has worked in magazine publishing and marketing communications, doing
everything from writing articles, laying out pages and reviewing hotels no mere mortal would afford to stay at, to print production. She edits genre fiction on a freelance basis.

She is a published travel writer, often contributing to the Weekend Argus Travel section, and much of this editorial is available on www.ioltravel.co.za
She conducts author interviews with fantasy authors. She writes reviews for genre fiction that appear in the Cape Times books page from time to time.

Her interests include classical guitar, photography, reading, magic, Egypt, art, The Owl House, nature, gardening, watching horror movies and travelling. From time to time she's modelled for photographers. She currently lives with her photographer husband near a nature reserve by Cape Point with two dogs, two cats and two goldfish. She has no plans of adding to the human overpopulation and sometimes has to fend off marauding gangs of baboons armed only with a broomstick.
