Jessie Atkin
Jessie Atkin learned to read later than most, but her sudden ability coincided with the release of the first Harry Potter book and an obsession was born. Aside from Harry Potter, she also learned to love comic books, with a particular affinity for superheroes. She received her MFA in creative writing from American University and has had short work published by The Rumpus, The YA Review Network, Writers Resist, Cloudbank, and elsewhere. Jessie is also a lifelong fan of the New York Mets. Find out more at jessieatkin.com
