Autorenporträt

A.S. Mink is an artist and writer based in Arnhem, the Netherlands. She published a short non-fiction piece in Silver Apples literary magazine, chronicling the first few weeks in Ireland as an immigrant. She has been short-listed with her first book in Mslexia's Novella Prize in 2019 and longlisted with her second in Mslexia's Novel Competition in 2022. A.S. Mink's love for stories and books started in her childhood when her family moved from Holland to Ireland. After spending many extra hours after school learning to read Dutch in her old primary school in Holland, she discovered that English suited her more than her native language. When the nuns taught her classmates Irish, they would send Mink to the dusty school library where the smell of old paper lingered. One hour a day of solitude - and she found a treasure trove of books her family didn't have at home. She read everything she could find: Roald Dahl, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the Brontë sisters - mysteries, love stories, detectives, historical fantasy and every encyclopedia on the self. When the family moved to a Georgian mansion in the middle of the Cork countryside, a house much like the ones in the books she loved, she spent her time imagining past inhabitants and their ghosts who still roamed the hallways and the secret staircase. Mink loves to walk through forests during rainstorms, and her favourite drink is tea - Earl Grey with cinnamon toast.
