she dreams of stars
Christine Love's collected fiction

I'm Christine Sarah Love, and I write a variety of fiction, from short pieces that stand on their own to novel length serials.

My work varies from science fiction conspiracies to war stories to epic fantasy to simple real world drama, but the one common thread is it's always character-driven, with a fascination for playing with perspective. I hope you enjoy.
