Jamie Mason does not like writing about herself in the third person. She has no idea how it ever became the standard for autobiographical blurbs. Jamie thinks that if her mother were writing this, or her sister, or her friend Jess, or the New York Times, it would be substantially less creepy.
Megan Shepherd grew up in the mountains of North Carolina, raised behind the counter of her parents’ independent bookstore, Highland Books in Brevard. Despite being surrounded by books, she never thought being an author could be a real career. Her passion was always travel and cultures, so she studied International Studies and foreign languages. Then she joined the Peace Corps and spent two years in Senegal, living in a mud hut with no electricity or running water, and teaching environmental education to school children.
Katherine Howe is the New York Times bestselling author of The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane, The House of Velvet and Glass, and Conversion. She has hosted “Salem: Unmasking the Devil” for the National Geographic Channel, and her fiction has been translated into over twenty-five languages. A native Texan, she lives in New England and upstate New York, where she teaches at Cornell and is at work on her next novel.
