Author and full-time mac and cheese enthusiast, R.M. Gray hails from a quaint Texas town best known for its soda, shiplap, and mammoth graveyards. She lives beside a field of bluebonnets with her film-fanatic husband and two giant dogs, where she enjoys writing stories about pirates, magic, mystery and all things fantastical. A self-proclaimed expert at whistling and a dedicated collector of lightsabers, she spends her days drinking too much Earl Grey tea, re-watching old cartoons, and thinking up new ways to break readers’ hearts.
