fancying herself a "book dragon" rather than a "bookworm", best selling author nichole mcelhaney grew up with her nose always stuck in a book. she consumed fairy tales, mythology, and anything related to witches and witchcraft. it was only natural that she grew up to become a practicing witch and poet. currently she can usually be found with a cup of tea in one hand and a book in the other. when she isn't reading or writing she spends time with her boyfriend, three children, and pack of rescued cats. she currently resides in maryland but hopes to one day move to a secluded cottage in the woods somewhere in new england.
