A.L. Heard

Ashley, pen name A.L. Heard, fandom name jhoom, is a 34 year old teacher, writer, and mother of two little boys. She's been writing fanworks since she discovered ff.net back in her middle school days; the platform has changed and the writing's improved, but Ashley ultimately still spends her free time writing about characters she adores in worlds she'd like to explore. Her first novel, Hockey Bois, was published in 2021. In between writing projects, she works as a language teacher in the Pittsburgh area, plays hockey, and plays trains with her sons.
