Vorlage:BLP sources Myrlin Hermes (born September 22, 1975) is an American author. She has written two books, Careful What You Wish For and The Lunatic, the Lover, and the Poet. She was born in California, but raised in India and Hawaii. She attended Reed College, and received her Master's from Royal Holloway at University of London. She has received grants and awards from the Arch and Bruce Brown Foundation, the Institute for Humane Studies, and the Arts Council England. She currently lives in Portland, Oregon.

About Hermes' first novel, Publishers Weekly praised 'her grasp of domestic joy and sadness, and her evocation of life in a small Southern town, add texture to this uplifting weeper.' Her second novel, The Lunatic, the Lover, and the Poet is a prequel to Hamlet, set in Hamlet's imagined college years. Publishers Weekly writes in their review: 'Filled with out-of-context quotes from Hamlet, confusions in sexual identity more commonly found in Shakespeare's comedies, and cameo appearances by Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, the novel too self-consciously repurposes elements from Shakespeare's tragedy, rendering this a colorful if incidental prologue to the tragic events at Elsinore Castle.' The novel won the 2011 Lambda Literary Foundation's Award for Bisexual Fiction.
