About Ozanna Wilder

Ozanna Wilder is a pen name for the warm, rebellious, restless part of me — the part that wants to ask uncomfortable questions, imagine unfamiliar futures, and follow characters somewhere they probably should not go.

I write science fiction, speculative fiction, dystopian fiction, cyberpunk, and dark, emotionally charged stories that sometimes cross into romance and erotica. You will also find poetry and reflections on language, writing, and the strange business of being human.

My stories explore grief, memory, desire, obsession, power, and the things we surrender for comfort. Sometimes that means a future where technology has changed what it means to be alive. Sometimes it means an office door closing on a very bad decision. Either way, I am interested in what happens when people can no longer live comfortably with the choices in front of them.

Why Subscribe?

For unsettling worlds, intimate voices, and characters whose choices stay with you after you finish reading.

This publication is home to my fiction as it unfolds: strange futures, compromised lives, forbidden desire, and moments of beauty in places where beauty should be difficult to find. I love the freedom to move between genres and let each story become what it needs to be.

Some pieces offer an escape. Others might leave you with a question you wish you had not asked.

What You Will Find Here

  • Science fiction and speculative fiction: technology, memory, identity, and the uncertain boundaries of being human.

  • Dystopian fiction and cyberpunk: compromised futures, corporate power, manufactured comfort, and the cost of refusing to comply.

  • Romance and erotica: forbidden desire, emotional stakes, obsession, and control coming undone.

  • Poetry and literary reflections: unusual language, uncomfortable feelings, and the occasional word that deserves another life.

Across these genres, I am drawn to complicated people: grieving, longing, making mistakes, and trying to hold on to something that matters. I want their worlds to feel strange and their emotions to feel painfully familiar.

About After Hours

After Hours is my workplace romance and erotica serial, following forbidden tension, slow-burn desire, and the decisions people make after five o’clock.

I started this series because I wanted to give another part of my imagination room to breathe. I love philosophical questions and emotional depth. I also love anticipation, temptation, and a cliffhanger that makes you impatient for the next installment.

New After Hours episodes publish every Friday.

A Little About Me

I live in Anchorage, Alaska. I am Ukrainian-born and American-raised. I start my mornings with black coffee and matcha tea. I’m an anime fan, a cat mom to two, a boy mom to one, and married to the love of my life.

I wrote my first unpublished manuscript when I was eight years old, and apparently, I never recovered.

I love unusual voices, melancholy, strange beauty, and stories willing to make me uncomfortable. I am drawn to characters who want things they cannot easily admit to wanting, worlds that promise more than they deliver, and hope that survives without pretending everything is fine.

A Note for Readers

This publication is intended for adults 18+. Depending on the piece, my work may include disturbing imagery, grief, psychological distress, sexual content, power dynamics, and emotionally complicated relationships.

My romance and erotica do not include non-consensual sexual encounters.
