Quinn Loftis is a successful American author, best known for her young adult contemporary and paranormal romance novels. She is the author of the popular Grey Wolves series. Loftis was born in Fort Smith, Arkansas, and refers to herself as a former "military brat." After getting married at the age of nineteen, she trained as a nurse and worked in the field for six years before deciding to write almost full-time. She considers herself a professional writer today.
Loftis is an avid reader and has been writing since her early childhood. She recalls often writing poems in grade school and receiving recognition for her words. Her favorite book series include the Alpha and Omega series by Patricia Briggs and J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series. Loftis's hobbies include writing, reading, and crocheting. She lives in Arkansas with her husband, son, and dog.
In 2011, Loftis self-published her first novel, Prince of Wolves, with no expectations other than her friends and family might purchase the book out of pity. To her surprise, the book was downloaded over 1 million times, making her dream of making a living by telling stories a reality. Loftis is the USA Today bestselling author of over thirty novels, including the award-winning Grey Wolves Series. She writes mostly YA fade-to-black romances full of powerful supernatural beings set in worlds both real and imagined. Occasionally, Loftis writes contemporary romance novels under her penname, Alyson Drake.
Loftis is a former pediatric nurse who was raised in the flat, cattle-country of East Texas. She is now blessed to call beautiful, Central Arkansas her home. When she isn't writing, Loftis can be found climbing Pinnacle Mountain, playing roller derby, or making swag for her readers, who she affectionately calls her pack. She is married to her best friend for over twenty years, and they have three rambunctious sons, two co-dependent dogs, and a cat that wants to take over the world. Loftis loves hearing from her readers, and she encourages them to join her pack by checking out all things Quinn on her website.
