Welcome to my home base, fellow nerd! You’ve finally found your people.

Nice to meet you, future super-fan! I’m Haylie. I am a YA sci-fi and fantasy author, and professional super-geek. Before you ask, yes, it’s totally a thing. You can be one, too, if you believe in yourself and own too many fandom Funko POP’s.

My head is a fantasy world of magical portals through the multiverse, teams of superheroes and villains, secret heists, curses and dragons, and, at the center of it all, girls who don’t need superpowers to realize the strength to save the day was inside their heart the whole time. Add a dose of hilarity and not taking ourselves too seriously, and you’ve got a great story!

I want all of you to come on journeys of magic with me. To geek out with me. To be the nerds we were meant to be! I love the quirky, oddball side of life. Do you? Let’s be nerd besties and take on the world!

I hope you’ll subscribe to my newsletter (I swear I’m not spammy), where you’ll be in the know for future publication news, writing updates, book recommendations, and more! Links to join my mailing list, order my books, and follow me on social media are down yonder.

Thanks again for dropping by!

Love,

Haylie



 

Fun Facts

  • I am from California, but we move around a lot due to my spouse’s job. My favorite place we’ve lived is Japan. Be jealous.

  • I was a teacher for seven years prior to my career shift to writing. My students thought I was weird. They weren’t wrong.

  • I have an uncanny ability to trip while standing still.

Nerd Things I love

  • Star Wars. This is the way. I have spoken.

  • Other fandoms—MCU, ATLA, Stranger Things.

  • Pretty much any cool sci-fi, as long as it has robots and space ships and big, furry Wookies… oh, wait, that’s Star Wars. See item one.

  • Super heroes! I’m a Marvel girl, but make an exception for Wonder Woman.
