Ashlynn James grew up an hour outside of Seattle, Washington. She moved to Denver following the death of her mother in 2008 and has lived there ever since. She received her BA in Sociology from Metropolitan State University of Denver in 2017. She now studies Creative Writing at Regis University. She lives with her partner and their two cats, Simon and Molly Weasley. When she is not writing, she works at a Montessori School as a preschool teacher. Her class consists mostly of four-year-olds who work hard to inspire her every day. She enjoys reading tarot card and practicing the guitar and piano—neither of which she is very good at.
