JESSIE LATIMER

Jessie Fanczi Latimer spent her childhood searching for portals to magical worlds like Hogwarts, Narnia, and Camp Half Blood. She never found one, but writing fantasy worlds of her own turned out to be the next best thing.

After earning her MFA and a brief stint working at a Colorado dude ranch, she settled down in the foothills of Georgia. When she’s not writing whimsical stories with unusual narrators, you can find her hanging out with her husband and son, murdering innocent house plants, and rereading her favorite books eighty-seven times instead of making progress on her TBR. Her debut novel, Again Behold the Stars, will be out in 2026.
