J.A. Stowe is from Northern California where they have no seasons, but somehow have seasonal allergies all year round.

 

At 8 years old, she wrote her first series about a horse that could understand English. 

 

You’re probably thinking of course, that’s genius! Her career path must have been set in stone. But she put writing on the backburner and tried her hand at many careers including a bachelor’s in anthropology and a stint as an EMT before surrendering to the stories and voices in her head. 

 

When she’s not squinting at a bright screen in the darkness, she enjoys riding her motorcycle, playing video games, and spending time with her rescue dog, Lily. Right now, she’s probably petting her pup with one hand and failing to kick her caffeine habit with the other.
