I write YA fiction and NA fiction. I've worked in many different industries, meeting people who would eventually  inspire the unique characters in my books. I'm a fan of the underdog, the anti-hero, and the anti-pioneer. I believe they each have a unique voice the world needs to hear. Writers who inspire me: Hemingway, Lewis, Jeffrey Overstreet, Paluchniak, Chuck Wendig, Lauren Kate, Joanna Penn, and Johnny B. Truant. 

Reader. Soft place in my heart for baby elephants. Sci-fi and Fantasy junkie through and through. Lover of all things YA fiction.

** UPDATES to my YA fairytale retelling happen every Friday - so be sure to add me to your reading list. 

I write a blog for readers of my stories, and fellow writers facing down fear, doubt, and all the OTHER details on the road to getting published. My readers are my “inner circle”, peanut gallery, sounding board, and think-tank. http://dedenesbitt.com/

After laying aside years of study on the road to classical musician, I majored and worked in finance and accounting. Deciding number crunching and cushy office seat warmer wasn't really my thing, I returned to my first love - creating crazy awesome stories with strong, under-dog protagonists. I reside in the suburbs north of Atlanta, Ga where I lose myself in the story worlds I create. 

Writer, reader, wife, mother, and sufferer of wanderlust. I believe life’s ills can be soothed through sci-fi movie marathons, coffee, and thickly iced slices of cake.  

Get to know me... I'm a blast.
