Nora Studholme was born and raised in the countryside of Virginia, where she grew her roots wandering forests and finding animal friends, always with a book in hand. Her greatest delight comes from being a writer of short stories, poetry, and novels. Mostly, she thinks of herself as a treasure hunter, traveling through life seeking those glimmers of story that hide everywhere. You can find her other work on Twitter at @nora.studholme
