Meet Christina

Before the characters, before the worlds… there’s a storyteller. Come meet her.

About Christina

Christina is a storyteller, spellbinder, and globe-trotting wordsmith with a B.A. in English and Creative Writing and a passport that's nearly as worn as her favorite journal. A self-proclaimed foodie and serial entrepreneur, she conjures up creativity through multiple ventures - including a coworking space that feels straight out of a modern-day guild hall. Married to her real-life knight for over two decades and raising three warrior princesses, Christina thrives on epic quests, enchanted tales, and chasing wonder in every corner of the globe - especially when the journey includes exploring new realms and embarking on unforgettable foodie adventures.

Step Beyond the Gate with Christina

Christina Welbourne is a fantasy author based in Tulsa, Oklahoma, whose stories live at the intersection of the ordinary and the unseen. With degrees in English and Creative Writing, and a professional background as a writer and social media strategist, she has spent years refining her ability to craft words that connect, captivate, and linger. As a business owner and world traveler, she draws inspiration not only from imagination, but from the people, places, and stories she encounters along the way.

Drawn to themes of memory, legacy, love, and the quiet mysteries that exist just beneath the surface of everyday life, Christina writes stories where magic doesn’t always arrive with a grand entrance. Sometimes, it’s found in forgotten places, family histories, and the moments that feel almost too meaningful to be coincidence.

Through atmospheric settings, layered characters, and emotionally driven storytelling, she creates worlds that feel both familiar and otherworldly. Her work invites readers to step beyond the veil, uncover hidden truths, and lose themselves in journeys shaped by destiny, connection, and the echoes of the past.

At her core, Christina is a storyteller in every sense — blending her academic foundation, professional experience, entrepreneurial spirit, and love of travel to craft stories that feel timeless, immersive, and deeply human.

Love stories where another world exists just beneath our own? 

If you enjoy the hidden magic of Neil Gaiman, the layered worlds of V. E. Schwab, the eerie tension of Stranger Things, the fae fantasy of Sarah J. Maas, and the wonder of The Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis…

What the Dead Remember lives in that space — where our world and another one quietly collide. 🗝️✨
