Jessica Deen Norris is an award-winning fantasy author from a small Cajun town in Louisiana. A proud homeschooling mom of five, she weaves her love for stories into her family’s daily life.

With a bachelor’s degree in English education, she once taught at both the junior high and high school level. Because of this, she knows how transformative the love of reading can be at that age. Today, she’s passionate about filling her children’s shelves as well as others’ with good books.

While homeschooling, reading, and writing dominate her day, she still finds time to indulge in her obsessions: collecting beautiful pens and notebooks, and sipping on copious amounts of coffee.
