NICOLE AUTUMN

Her love of reading started the summer of 8th grade when she found Twilight by Stephanie Meyer sitting on a Target shelf. She spent the last of her allowance and then spent the rest of the day reading. Ever since then, reading has been a staple in her life. She even attempted several times to write a novel of her own but never could get past chapter 10. That all changed when inspiration struck on a hot July night at midnight. She could not get this story out of her mind and spent the next three hours writing into the dead of night. Her characters seemed to come to life as she wrote and then she hit that dreaded chapter 10 and was stuck for months. She heard of something called NaNoWriMo from a fellow TikTok creator and looked into it. Soon she was able to get her first-ever novel finished in December of 2022. Her debut novel is set to come out Spring of 2023!
