Sylvia Croft

Sylvia Croft is a writer, storyteller, and longtime Burner who first set foot on the playa more than a decade ago and never forgot the way the desert stripped life down to its essentials: dust, fire, and radical community. She has returned year afer year to build art installations, volunteer on playa crews, and sit in silence at the Temple. When she's not wandering Black Rock City, she lives in Northern California, where she writes fiction that explores transformation, belonging, and the rituals we invent to carry ourselves through change. How We Burn is her first novel.
