Lee Winter Biography & Facts
Lee Winter (born in Christchurch, New Zealand) is the pen name of an Australian journalist and novelist specializing in lesbian fiction. Biography Lee Winter spent her early years growing up on the Gold Coast, Queensland, before her family moved to Brisbane. Originally, she had a three-decade career in journalism, winning awards for her work. Later, she became a novelist, specializing in lesbian fiction, covering genres from mystery and thriller to romance. In 2015 Winter released the novel The Red Files; Marisol Cortez of Lesbians on the Loose described it as "a great read by a promising debut author", praised the writing and characters, and noted the inspiration from Winter's journalism career. In 2016, she wrote the novel Requiem for Immortals; Tara Scott of Lesbians on the Loose said, "if I want to read something from a different genre, it’s a relief to not have to leave lesfic to find it, and Requiem for Immortals perfectly scratches that itch." Both of these novels were nominated for the Lambda Literary Award for Lesbian Mystery and won the Golden Crown Literary Society for Mystery/Thriller: The Red Files in 2016 and Requiem for Immortals in 2017. In 2017 she wrote the novel Shattered, which won the 2018 Golden Crown Literary Society Award for Science Fiction/Fantasy. In 2020, she wrote the novel Hotel Queens, which won the 2021 Golden Crown Literary Society Award for Romantic Blend. In 2023 Winter started a new book series, The Villains, with The Fixer as the inaugural title. Writing for Autostraddle, Christina Tucker said of the book, "If you have ever known the joy and the pain of being totally head-over-heels invested in a slow burn, incomplete fanfic, then The Fixer is for you, I promise." The Fixer broke its publisher Ylva Publishing's record for most preorders. That same year, Winter released another novel, Chaos Agent, which Tucker said "surprised [her] with its smart and heartfelt combination of questions about morality and ethics, as it concluded the story that began in The Fixer. Writing for AfterEllen, Claire Heuchan described The Villains as "a slick political thriller [l]ike Scandal if Olivia Pope was sapphic", noting that the relationship between the series' main characters Eden and Michelle was "the ultimate Opposites Attract romance". She was one of three winners of that year's Alice B Readers Award. According to Heuchan, Winter's novels include a "deep understanding of media, politics, and how power is structured". Winter works as an editor part-time. Works Novels On the Record series The Red Files. Book 1. (2015) 2. Auflage. Ylva Publishing, Kriftel 2021, ISBN 978-3-96324-534-3. Under Your Skin. Book 2.
