Naomi Neale grew up in Richmond, Virginia.
Although she has been a resident of Royal Oak, Michigan,
for over fifteen years, people still gravely inform her
that she has a southern accent. Her short novel, King of
Orient Are, appeared in the anthology, Shop 'Til
Yule Drop. As Naomi Nash, she has written a
number of popular novels for young adults, including You
Are SO Cursed!, Chloe, Queen of Denial, and
Beaner O'Brian's Absolutely Ginormous Guidebook to Guys.
When Naomi isn't writing, she's most likely haunting
karaoke lounges.
Naomi attended the College of William and Mary in
Williamsburg, Virginia, for a bachelor's degree in
psychology, and Virginia Commonwealth University for a
master's degree in English. But to be honest, she doesn't
know where the heck those diplomas went.
