Elizabeth C. Bunce

I write historical fantasy for young adults and discerning not-so-young adults. "Historical fantasy" means my work is inspired by real places and cultures of the past, but with fantastical, otherworldly, or magical elements.
I've been writing as long as I can remember--even before I knew it was a job! I’ve always been interested in literature, folklore, history, and culture, so I studied English and anthropology in college. But I’ve only ever worked as a writer (although not all my writing jobs were as interesting as being a novelist).
I’m a native Midwesterner, currently living in the tall grass prairie near Kansas City with my husband and our dogs. When I’m not writing, you can find me with a book, a dog, or my needlework in hand, sometimes all of the above, which makes for some furry embroidery.
Have fun prowling about the website; here you'll find information about me and my books, as well as some of my favorite things to read and do. Be sure to check out the Resources page for all sorts of useful and entertaining links. And when you're done prowling, feel free to drop me a line. I'd love to hear from you!
