Gaelan Donovan Wort penned his first novel, The Nature of Predation, at the age of seventeen, driven by a restless passion for storytelling that has since deepened into a lifelong craft. Since that early beginning, he has followed the shadows that gather between myth and memory, reverie and ruin—threads that continue to weave throughout his stories. His fiction drifts between genres—gothic horror, mythic tragedy, psychological thriller, speculative drama, and satirical science fiction—but is always drawn to the liminal, the haunted, and the human. Whether eerie or elegiac, his stories linger where the rational frays—and the unknowable begins.
