Elisabeth Aimee Brown has always had a knack for personifying inanimate objects, from bottles of lotion to algebraic equations, so it makes sense that she ended up as a fantasy author. While she’s also worked as a camp counselor, librarian, music teacher, nanny, and smoothie maker, her favorite role is wife to her pastor husband and mother to her two young daughters. They live together in an idyllic farmhouse in rural Illinois with one cat (so far) and multiplying rabbits.
