edit data

L. Austen Johnson is an award-winning writer and designer from Virginia who counts herself lucky to be from the lovers’ state. She studied English, Archaeology, and Astronomy in university, which may explain her love for stargazing and time-traveling. She holds a B.A. from the University of Virginia and an M.A. from the University of Chicago.

When she’s not working, you can find her searching for animals to pet, singing off-key in the shower, and learning the art of making the perfect cup of tea.
