Judith C. Vogt, born 1981 in Langenbroich , Düren, is a German author of fantasy, feminist and queer science fiction, young adult literature and historical novels. She is also a role-playing game developer.
After graduating from secondary school, Judith C. Vogt completed an apprenticeship as a bookseller and then worked as a bookseller for several years. [1]
Her first novel, Im Schatten der Essen, was published in 2011 as part of the Aventurien-Romane series. Other books set in the world of the fictional continent of Aventurien have been published by Fantasy Productions and Ulisses Spiele . Her trilogy of children's books Die Geister des Landes was published in 2012. [1]
With her husband, the physicist Christian Vogt , she has written the steampunk novel Die zerbrochene Puppe published by Feder & Schwert , the sequel Die verlorene Puppe, the two-part historical novel Eburonenlied about the Gallic War, the fantasy trilogy Die 13 Gezeichneten published by Bastei Lübbe and the science fiction novels Wasteland und Ace in Space, which are part of the successful role-playing game Aces in Space. [2]
A game developer, she first wrote adventures and source code for The Dark Eye. Eis & Dampf, Scherbenland and Aces in Space are independent role-playing settings for Fate (role-playing game system). Scherbenland received the German Roleplaying Game Award 2018. [3]
Die zerbrochene Puppe was awarded the 2013 Deutscher Phantastik Preis in the main category Best German-language novel. Coinciding with the novel's nomination, the first German anthology of short stories to be crowdfunded, Eis und Dampf, was produced in collaboration with Feder & Schwert and 10 other authors. [4] Vogt has also taken over the publication of an anthology on the 1200th anniversary of the death of Charlemagne. She was publisher and editor of Roll Inclusive - Diversity und Repräsentation im Pen&Paper-Rollenspiel.
Together with her husband, Judith C. Vogt is one of the 13 founding members of the Phantastik-Autoren-Netzwerk (PAN). In February 2020, the two announced their departure from the network to denounce its racism. [5]
She lives in Aachen and also works as a translator and journalist. Together with Lena Richter, she runs the nerd culture and role-playing podcast Genderswapped. Together with Lena Richter and Kathrin Dodenhoeft [de], she publishes the quarterly queer and feminist fantasy magazine Queer*Welten. [6]
Her novels are part of a progressive literature: she features heroines who can be black or trans women, and the heroes always have, alongside their superpowers, burdens linked to a traumatic past. [7]
Her writing is also part of what has been described as hopepunk, as opposed to the dark, pessimistic dystopian genre known as grimdark. Judith C. Vogt and Christian Vogt probably published the first hopepunk novel, Wasteland, [2] which describes the lives of people living in a market surrounded by violent gangs, the market constituting a utopian world in a dystopian environment.
