Jennifer Ellision

Jennifer Ellision is a USA Today bestselling author known for crafting young adult fantasy stories centered on daring young women navigating magical worlds. Her works often draw inspiration from beloved childhood influences, including the heroines of "Sailor Moon" and Tamora Pierce's "Alanna of Tortall" series. Ellision's writing frequently explores themes of empowerment, adventure, and the yearning for magical transformation.

A lifelong enthusiast of fantasy tropes and immersive storytelling, Ellision balances her writing career with family life in northern Georgia, where she resides with her husband, children, and two dogs. Her creative process thrives in quiet moments—whether tucked away in her office, revising manuscripts at the library, or listening to audiobooks during walks in the woods. Ellision's passion for thrifting and autumnal landscapes often seeps into the atmospheric details of her fictional worlds.

Ellision has garnered recognition for her ability to blend relatable coming-of-age narratives with enchanting fantasy elements. Her debut YA fantasy trilogy, introduced through a companion novelette, showcases her signature style—whimsical yet grounded, with protagonists who embody resilience and curiosity. While she continues to expand her literary repertoire, her stories remain anchored in the magic-infused adventures that first captivated her as a reader.
