As the daughter of a religious studies professor and a New York Times-bestselling mystery author, Zoe Quinton was born with stories in her blood. After working in the traditional publishing industry with her mother for over a decade, Zoe branched out to form her own freelance editing and publishing consultancy business in 2017. When she’s not reading for work or pleasure—which is rare—she is probably either drinking good coffee or whiskey, doing plant lady things, and/or spending time with her two kids and three cats at their lovely home in Santa Cruz, California.
