About Me
Hello! I'm Nicky Penttila, and I invite you to step into stories that explore the human heart amidst the stars. My novels delve into identity, love, and family, whether through the eyes of a disillusioned robot or the struggles of a distant future family. I aim to offer emotionally rich narratives that those searching for depth and connection will find both compelling and relatable.
Even as life’s demands pulled me in many directions—from journalism across the country to cozy Maryland days with my reading-mad spouse and zoomy rescue cats—my constant has been the narrative threads that connect us all. If you're drawn to the exploration of human emotions and relationships in extraordinary circumstances, you'll feel at home in my stories.
I'd be delighted to hear from you about your favorite characters or to chat about what makes a story resonate. Join me on a cosmic journey by connecting through Bluesky/X/Ihreads/IG, @NickyPenttila, or Mastodon, @nickypenttila@mastodon.online
Feel free to reach out, follow my latest updates, or join my newsletter for insider info and discussions—your story is as important as mine.
Everybody doing their favorite thing on a Sunday afternoon: Nicky reading, Lilo lounging on her pillow in the sun, Maddie supervising the neighborhood.
