Autorenporträt
Salina Christmas is an author, journalist and anthropologist. She studied English Language and Literature at IIU Malaysia and Digital Anthropology at University College London. She writes on pop culture and books. Christmas is a fan of horror, fantasy and romance genres. Her series of horror fiction, The Constant Companion Tales, is written and published in London. Her interest, as an author and anthropologist, is in the situations that occur during transitional periods, and the stories that these periods inspire. The horror fiction series is loosely inspired by her childhood during the time of the Second Malayan Insurgency, and also by the periods between 1938 and 1966. She was born in Mentakab, Pahang, Malaysia, where her father's regiment was based. Together with her three siblings, including a twin, they attended some 10 schools as the family followed their father's regiments all over the country. For the first 15 years, Christmas lived in military posts on the outskirts of jungles. Her dramatic fiction is informed by her experience in London, UK, and in Malaysia as a witness of the transition both countries had gone through, from analogue to digital, and from markedness to fluidity in sociocultural identity - a reflection of her own diverse cultural background. Christmas grew up listening to plenty of horror stories - real or imagined - and folklore from relatives, teachers and friends.
