Yeah, I made that sweater. |
I've wanted to write YA books for as long as I've been writing this blog, and I got serious about it while in college. After college, I attended the Vermont College of Fine Arts MFA program in Writing for Children & Young Adults, which is pretty much like being able to finally go to Hogwarts, only everyone is grown up and there aren't as many owls. We threw some pretty incredible parties, though, and there was still plenty of magic. I graduated in 2015, and now work as a bookseller, freelance writer, and occasional substitute teacher.

My best Halloween costume ever. |
Besides writing and YA, I love knitting (I have an unhealthy obsession with hand knit socks), growing stuff, overly ambitious baking projects, flannel, TV shows, and road trips.
