The daughter of a\u00a0<em>Star Wars\u00a0<\/em>collector, she grew up going to an endless string of\u00a0<em>Star Wars\u00a0<\/em>conventions and toy fairs, which helped spark her imagination and a deep love of reading. After graduating high school, she attended The College of William &amp; Mary in Virginia, where she double majored in English and History. She sold her first book,\u00a0<em>Brightly Woven<\/em>, as a senior in college, and later moved to New York City to work in children&#8217;s book publishing, first as an editorial assistant, then in marketing. After six years, she took the plunge and decided to write full time. She now lives in Arizona with her tiny pup, Tennyson, in a house that&#8217;s constantly overflowing with books. Alex is a #1\u00a0<em>New York Times\u00a0<\/em>bestselling and\u00a0<em>USA TODAY\u00a0<\/em>bestselling author. Her work is available across the world in over 15 languages.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Meet New York Times Bestselling Author and Arizona
