Hannah K began her writing journey as a teen living in southern China. Now halfway grown up, she works as a full-time nanny and a rest-of-the-time writer. Her debut novel, Marty’s Kid, was a Top Ten Fiction title for the In the Margins Book Award, and her poetry and prose have appeared in Writer’s Digest, The Curator, Nettlesome, and the TCU Journal of the Arts. Hannah studied child development and international service at Texas Christian University, and now lives in Philadelphia. On a random day, you might see her chasing a toddler, scribbling lyrics for her dream musical, or sipping her sixth cup of tea.
