H.J. Marshall began her love of reading and writing at an early age and has always dreamed of being a writer full time. A nomadic youth exposed her to different perspectives of life, community, and culture, resulting in a lifelong love of food, music, and history. When she is not writing, she enjoys the music of all generations and genres, reading, and living in her cabin in the woods. Currently landlocked, H.J. dreams of her beach house, salty air, a life filled with laughter.
