Caitlin E. Jones is an author, freelance editor, and lover of all things dark and fantastic. A homeschooled student through most of her young life, she was raised in South Louisiana, where the myths still roam wild. She chose writing shortly after realizing that joining the circus and being a princess were not viable careers. Since the publication of her first indie novel, CHIMEHOUR, she has published short fiction with MYTHIC Magazine, Star-Lit Path Magazine, Corvid Queen Press, and Fabled Collective. She carries a BA in Literary Studies, a minor in History, and MA in Literature. She is currently pursuing her Ph.D. in 19th-century gothic literature. When not writing, her hobbies include yoga, gardening, travel, baking, and reading.
