She lives in San Diego, California, with her husband, chatty toddler and photogenic Maltese.

Brighton Rose is a middle grade and young adult fantasy writer specializing in sky pirates and girls who lie. She’s an Author Mentor Match mentee, Pitch Wars mentee and occasional doodler. She lives in central Texas with an electric piano and 43 houseplants.
