Seanan McGuire
Seanan McGuire (also known as Mira Grant and A. Deborah Baker) is an author of short stories, novels, and comics. She lives in the Pacific Northwest of North America. Seanan is the author of Middlegame, the Hugo, Nebula, Alex, and Locus Award-winning Wayward Children series, the October Daye urban fantasies, the InCryptid urban fantasies, and several other works, both stand-alone and in trilogies or duologies.
She was the winner of the 2010 John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer, and her novel Feed (as Mira Grant) was named one of Publishers Weekly's Best Books of 2010. In 2013, she became the first person ever to appear five times on the same Hugo Ballot.
Magic: The Gathering
McGuire first contributed to the Magic Story for Innistrad: Midnight Hunt.[1] She also contributed to the story of Dominaria United and Phyrexia: All Will Be One, and wrote the BOOM! comics Magic: Ajani Goldmane and Magic: Nahiri the Lithomancer. She continued this with the story of Murders at Karlov Manor and Duskmourn: House of Horror. For the latter, she switched to her Mira Grant alias.
In addition to publications on the main Magic story, she often posts authors' insights and trivia on her stories on her site; she terms these as "DVD Extras", likening them to a director's commentary.
In February 2026, her young-adult novel Strixhaven: Omens of Chaos will be released.
