Fox Hamilton (they/them) is a Cornish genderqueer butch author, reader, and multi-disciplinary artist based in Scotland.
They create sapphic stories that celebrate the vast, magical diversity of the community, writing the kinds of books they desperately wished they could have read growing up at a time when queer and neurodivergent representation was painfully sparse.
A lifelong artist, Fox works across a wide range of mediums, from digital illustration to painting to embroidery and other fibre arts. Their creative practice, both written and visual, returns again and again to themes of tiny victories, queer joy, neurodivergent interiority, and small, diverse truths that make ordinary life feel enchanted.
They are autistic, dyslexic, hard of hearing, physically disabled, and live with OCD, and they often draw on these lived experiences to shape the emotional landscapes of their characters. Fox is passionate about writing neurodivergent and disabled protagonists who exist fully. Messy, tender, complicated, and loved.
When they’re not writing, Fox can usually be found devouring books for hours, tending virtual worlds and crops in simulation games, experimenting with learning another new skill, or joyfully hoarding new hobbies and special interests. They also rewatch Buffy the Vampire Slayer at least twice a year.
Fox lives happily in the west of Scotland with their stunning wife, fantastic daughter, and two troublesome cats.
