A.M. Muffaz is a Malaysian writer living in San Francisco. She whiles away her days with a husband who is way too kind as he is tall and a food inspector cat who speaks in pirate. When not reading obsessively difficult books, she is probably thinking about obsessively difficult things. She enjoys history, video games (Wizardry-style dungeon crawlers, tactical RPGs, Shin Megami Tensei), anime, manga and cute, fluffy animals. Oh, and murder. Because some murders are clearly more delightful than others.
Her first book, Finches, was published by Vernacular Books in October 2021. It was nominated for a World Fantasy Best Novella award in 2022. The Society of Vegetarian Cannibals, her latest book, came out from Absinthe Books in November 2025.
