Bowman is not only a talented writer but also a visual storyteller. As a former web designer, she has a keen eye for detail and a deep appreciation for quality typography. When she’s not writing, Bowman enjoys hiking, immersing herself in the world of Harry Potter, and spending time with her family. She currently resides in New Hampshire.
