About the Author
Margot Hovley was raised in rural Washington State, where she worked as a girl pig-herder and champion produce boxmaker. She now lives and plays in Utah with her big family. When she’s not storytelling, she’s hanging out with family, teaching music to the somewhat willing, and fooling with techy gadgets. She loves hiking, traveling, and concocting adventures.
Ten FUN things to know about her :)
1. I was raised in the country in southeastern Washington, not too far from where Sudden Darkness is set.
2. Getting emails from readers is my favorite thing in the world.
3. Several things from my own life are "hidden" in the book.
4. Despite being a grandma I play basketball twice a week. (Most people can't believe that!)
5. I once played the piano in front of President Hinckley and have accompanied the Tabernacle Choir for a funeral. (TERRIFYING!!)
6. I teach a weekly teen writing class that I adore.
7. I'm obsessed with Scandinavia and am writing a fantasy set in a pretend medieval Denmark.
8. I also write a self-reliance blog that gets 1000 hits per day, called Old School. (www.mynewoldschool.com)
9. I love antiques but at the same time I love techy things. My adoration of my MacBook Air is a bit extreme. :)
10. I'm a 8-year cancer survivor. Having hair again is awesome!
