Charles de Lint
Charles de Lint (born December 22, 1951) is a Canadian writer.Primarily a writer of fantasy fiction, he has composed works of urban fantasy, contemporary magical realism, and mythic fiction. Along with authors like Terri Windling, Emma Bull, and John Crowley, de Lint during the 1980s pioneered and popularized the subgenre of urban fantasy. He writes novels, novellas, short stories, poetry]], and lyrics. His most famous works include: the Newford series of books (''Dreams Underfoot'', ''Widdershins'', ''The Blue Girl'', ''The Onion Girl'', ''Moonlight and Vines'', ''Someplace to be Flying'', etc.), as well as ''Moonheart'', ''The Mystery of Grace'', ''The Painted Boy'' and ''A Circle of Cats'' (children's book illustrated by Charles Vess). His distinctive style of fantasy uses American folklore and European folklore; de Lint was influenced by many authors of mythology, folklore, and science fiction, including J. R. R. Tolkien, Lord Dunsany, William Morris, Mervyn Peake, James Branch Cabell, and E. R. Eddison. Some of his mythic fiction poetry can be found online on the Endicott Studio website.
As an essayist/critic/folklorist he writes book reviews for ''The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction'', has judged several literary awards, and has been a writer-in-residence for two public libraries. Provided by Wikipedia
