Noelle Monét’s angst was cultivated in central North Carolina where the air is as thick as the gravy. A 2025 Lambda Literary Fellow, registered nurse, author, and business owner, she can often be found covered in the residue left behind by sticky toddler fingers, buried beneath her ever-growing physical TBR pile, or standing at the edge of the sea, overwhelmed by the vastness of the world.
She lives on the coast with her partner, three kids, and two cats, Eloise and Greg.
Born in New Jersey, but raised in North Carolina, Noelle Monét spent her childhood staying out past the streetlights and getting in trouble for it. Never one to shy away from the macabre, Noelle dreamt of becoming a doctor in a level I trauma ER. Instead, she wrote angsty slam poetry on the floor of her closet and became a nurse, an ice cream shop owner, and an author.
Living on the coast with her partner, three kids, and a menagerie of animals both wild and domesticated, Noelle writes SFF and Horror novels that she describes as “emotion-forward,” always featuring a Black main character, and always tackling social issues with a healthy dose of humor and a romance worth pining for.
When she’s not writing, she can be found covered in the residue left behind by sticky toddler fingers, buried beneath her ever-growing physical TBR pile, or standing at the edge of the sea, overwhelmed by the vastness of the world.
Noelle’s debut novel BOUND BY FURY comes out Summer 2026 with McElderry Books/Simon and Schuster!
