Allie first wrote her debut novel, OLIVETTI, on her own antique typewriter--who turned out to have an awful lot to say. She lives with her husband, their dog Crumpet, and a collection of clacking machines. You can find her on instagram (@allieinink) or possibly in her pillow fort.

Allie's second Middle Grade novel, ONCE FOR YES, releases with Macmillan Publishers in 2025. She has two picture books that will quickly follow, WHEN YOU FIND A HOPE and WHEN YOU FIND A QUESTION (Hachette Book Group).

“Don't you see? We bought you when you were broken. Even though you were in pieces, you were worth saving.”
Allie Millington, Olivetti

“They filled their lives to forget.
Typewriters do not have the luxury of moving on.
Remembering is the very language we speak.
I am a patchwork of pasts, stitched together with stories.”
Allie Millington, Olivetti

“Strength isn't about what you can do," Beatrice said. "Its about what you can endure.”
Allie Millington, Olivetti
