Long Bio
Bert Rinderle is a Pacific Northwest author, librarian, and nonprofit director whose writing explores the mysterious spaces between humanity, mythology, memory, and the unknown. Drawing inspiration from weird fiction, esoteric and occult history, and the strange patterns hidden beneath everyday existence, his stories aim to evoke curiosity, wonder, and reflection.
He is the creator of The God Body Arc, an ambitious pair of interconnected trilogies unfolding across immense spans of time and reality. Filled with unfamiliar entities, ancient forces, hidden implications, and deeply human themes, the series examines the non-human experience while remaining rooted in questions of identity, meaning, and connection. Bert approaches storytelling less as a process of invention and more as discovery, allowing worlds, scenes, and voices to emerge through instinct, mystery, and imagination.
He believes stories are completed by their readers, and that meaning exists in the shared space between creator and audience. Through The God Body Arc, Bert hopes to inspire curiosity, exploration, and a sense of wonder for the things that cannot always be fully explained.
When not writing, Bert trains for marathons, studies obscure history and philosophy, reads strange fiction, watches atmospheric horror films, and spends time with his cat, Hazel, who maintains a firm supervisory role over the creative process.
