After her stick figure comic series failed to garner any fans, twelve-year-old Adelaide Thorne accepted that drawing would never be her superpower. But she never forgot the mystery of heroes, powers, and a bad guy who’s only bad because he feels stuck. Or maybe he’s just bad, and that’s interesting, too.

Adelaide’s writing has taken her around town. After years of being the pickiest eater in the south, she somehow got a stint as a city blogger and food columnist. She’s since said goodbye to journalistic writing and hello to creative writing, which is, after all, what she’s always done. 

She currently lives with her family in Florida, where she complains about the humidity but secretly basks in it. Find her tromping around the swamp, baking sourdough bread, and growing herbs, only to promptly kill them.
