Naomi Pond is a homeschooled high schooler from Irvine, California. When not reading(or rereading) fantasy and sci-fi books, she loves drawing cats in her sketchbook, playing piano, helping out on her robotics team, and, of course working on short stories of her own, two of which can be found in Young Inklings' 2022 anthology and Owl Hollow Press's Change the World anthology. She is looking forward to helping Polyphony Lit as a Junior Editor.
