Fox, Gretchen Powell: - Gretchen Powell Fox spent her childhood in far-off places-figuratively and literally. She grew up with her nose buried in books and her feet on foreign soil. Both, she found, were essential in forming her deep fascination with stories. Now, she crafts fantastical worlds-along with the fiery heroes destined to change them for the better.Her creative process involves copious amounts of Sour Patch Kids and sleeping fitfully. Her many interests include Taylor Swift, polka dots, reading voraciously, and playing the ukulele.She lives in Northern Virginia with her husband and two wild, wonderful children.Connect with her on Instagram at @gretchenwritesbooks and sign up for her newsletter at gretchenpowellfox.com/newsletter.
