Ti Mikkel is an acclaimed television writer making her debut as a novelist with The Archivist, the first in a genre-bending trilogy nearly a decade in the making. Raised in small-town Indiana by a family of golfers, she studied German in Colorado and Germany before undergoing spinal fusion surgery for advanced scoliosis—a turning point that set her on a new path.
After college, she moved to Los Angeles, where a chance internship led to working as George R. R. Martin's writing assistant. She has since joined the writing teams of HBO's A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and House of the Dragon. Ti now splits her time between the U.K. and Florida with her English husband and their Chihuahua, Brisket.
