Haley DeVoreHaley DeVore is a multi-genre author who resides in Southeast Ohio with her tortie cat, Leia. She loves to write wild, mysterious, science fiction, or speculative stories like the one in your hands. However, she also is a sucker for a good romance stry. She prides herself on speaking on serious issues in her writing while also making the lines seem conversational or sarcastic in nature, as they would if the characters woven into the worlds were real in these situations. She's also extremely passionate about where she's from, the foothills of Appalachia, and you'll see many themes, quirks, and settings from her stories are based on this area in her work. Her family is from deep in the Appalachian region of West Virginia and Tennessee, and many of the things they do and the way they live are based on customs, ideas, stories, and traditions of the area. She loves to breathe those traditions and ideas into the characters she puts on paper. She loves being outside and, when the weather is warm, enjoys camping, kayaking, and exploring state and national parks. Other things she enjoys doing when not writing is playing guitar, going to concerts, traveling, and doing all things involved in fandom (like conventions and cosplay!). Untethered is her debut novel.
