She grew up in the remote mountains by the Alaska/Canada border in a one room cabin with no electricity or running water, and with the wild animals her family's only neighbors. Snowed in for eight months out of the year, she spent most of her time reading and grew up with a love of books and the worlds open to her through them. She is married and lives with her husband, mother, and four children. When she is not writing she tutors elementary children in math and reading, imparting her love of books. Summers are spent in the mountains where she grew up, at the family gold mine.lihat lebih sedikit
