Taylor Hartley graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a Bachelor’s degree in English Literature and a minor in Creative Writing. Inspired largely by Tamora Pierce and Madeleine L’Engle, they’ve been writing stories since before they could speak (or so they’ve been told).
When they’re not reading or writing, Taylor can be found in a high school classroom, but most preferably, rewatching Interview with the Vampire, working out their rage on the rowing machine, or drinking a cup of coffee and cuddling with her two chunky cats. An eternal lover of the em dash and the Oxford comma, Taylor lives in Charlotte, North Carolina with their partner Aaron, who also teaches English.
