Emm Cole is the author of a Fantasy YA series, Merminia and Keeping Merminia, as well as an Adult Paranormal Romance/Fantasy novel, The Short Life of Sparrows. She lives with her husband and two spunky children. When she's not writing, she is often highlighting favorite passages in books.She believes that every new story she writes should challenge the limits of her imagination further than the last one, and she plans to keep developing unique magical realms, one book at a time.According to Emm, authors Laini Taylor, Maggie Stiefvater, and John Green are pen-wielding super heroes. Don't share your Sour Patch Kids or Swedish Fish with her, because she'll eat them all. Emm is a fan of everything supernatural and finds that drama in stories is always more entertaining than the real kind. She also enjoys thought-provoking art and is an admitted TV series junkie who has The Vampire Diaries and Friday Night Lights memorized. If a pop culture reference wasn't acknowledged on Gilmore Girls, she probably finds it irrelevant.
