About Me
Sera Maddox Drake is an independent, self-published author who specializes in literary erotica with esoteric, occult themes. Their work has a special focus on the viewpoints of neurodiverse, queer characters.
Their award-winning debut novel, Ancilla, has been lauded by readers and critics alike as profound, intense, immersive, dreamy, magical, edgy, heart-wrenching, spicy, deliriously romantic, sensuous, and epic... although all critics and readers seem to be at a loss as to what genre to fit Ancilla in. The general consensus seems to be that Ancilla explores the intersection of autistic neurodivergence, kink, queerness, and mysticism. Curious how that plays out? You'll have to read the book and see for yourself.
Morsels, a collection of short stories that range from sweet and humorous to searingly kinky to downright disturbing, launched in late November 2024 and is available now.
When not writing or researching, Sera can be found cooking, gardening, reading for fun, or attending the local symphony.

How could I possibly do this to someone else, later in life, when my education is complete, without ever having endured it? As far as I am capable of submitting, I must. If I am to be a guide in the darkness, I need to go into the shadows myself. I have to. It's who I am. — Sera Maddox Drake —
Our days pass in poetry and philosophy and meditation, our nights in love and pain. We move together in a golden glow, bathed in sweetness. — Sera Maddox Drake —
Our souls are stars, each of us burning brightly in this universe with the spark of the divine; we are all, every one of us, stars. It is our task to remember this. We must learn to hear the music of the spheres and our place in the sacred harmony. — Sera Maddox Drake —
