Elizabeth A Drysdale
Award Winning Young Adult Fantasy Author
A Bit About the Author
Elizabeth A. Drysdale won her first writing award at the age of seven and has followed it up with more awards, including the Bronze Quill for her novel, Out of Time, and 1st in the Olive Woolley Burt Awards in the category of YA First Chapters in the Quills League of Utah Writers Competition for her novel The Exile's Promise. Elizabeth is an active member of the League of Utah Writers and an advocate for NaNoWriMo. She spent much of her childhood roaming through woods and climbing trees creating adventures to be someone else in. These childhood daydreams often find their way into her many novels, although with much more finesse and a lot less hanging upside down. After graduating from Excelsior College, she’s kept her nose in a book, either writing or reading, ever since. Elizabeth has a love of travel which often inspires her heroines to end up in places very different from where they started. Originally from the back woods of Massachusetts, she lives in a small town in Northern Utah with her husband, three sons, one dog, and eight chickens. Each day is filled with noise, more than a little dirt, and enough chaos to fill a hundred pages.
