Jenny Paxton was born in San Antonio, raised in Lubbock, and attended both Abilene Christian University and Texas Tech. After receiving her PhD in history, Jenny now teaches history at the University of Texas - Permian Basin. She loves to read, and when the story she wants doesn't exist, sometimes she simply must write it herself! Her work is strongly influenced by a love of fantastical elements blended with reality, scrupulous historical research, and her own Christian faith. Jenny currently lives in Odessa, Texas, with her four cats.
