Joanne Hatfield was born in Barrow-in-Furness, England, but it wasn’t long before she was whisked away by her family to be raised in the small town of Monroeville, Alabama, thus cementing her American accent. Despite living in the “Literary Capital of Alabama” for most of her childhood, it wasn’t until after college that she discovered a real passion for writing, and she hasn’t stopped creating new worlds since. She has a degree in Nuclear Medicine, and when not writing, she enjoys video games, watching classic and obscure science fiction movies, and trying to keep her five-year-old from hugging her favorite cat to death.
