Zoe Anastasia grew up in an Army family, moved all over the country, and discovered along the way that whimsical fantasy stories feel like home. She writes to illuminate the darkness and show the girl tucked in the corner that she is seen and belongs.

When Zoe isn’t daydreaming about magical humpback whales and butterflies who can speak, she’s usually wandering through nature or making apple cider donuts at her local pumpkin farm. Wary of crafty, book-thieving monsters, she also runs The Fable Fortress, a shop filled with bookmarks and sleeves to protect your precious tomes from harm.
