Author

Hudson Lin (she/her) writes heartfelt, gritty romances featuring queer people of color. The New York Times has called Lin’s writing “splashy and dazzling and high-intensity,” and Book Riot has said that her dramatic plot lines “would make Shonda Rhimes proud.”

Her latest book, Dragon Boats & Doctor’s Notes is a sapphic Asian romance featuring an overworked obstetrician and a non-binary dragon boat team captain. Her duology featuring queer Asian finance bros, Hard Sell and Going Public, was published by Carina Press. Based in Toronto, Lin currently serves as the Program Coordinator at the Festival of Literary Diversity and is the co-host of the Into the FOLD podcast.
