T.L. Haddix is the author of the Firefly Hollow Series, women's fiction romances set in Eastern Kentucky, as well as numerous other projects under various pen names. She's a self-described eccentric, a somewhat reclusive stick in the mud who lives in Eastern Kentucky with her husband and their cat-children. Her hobbies include gardening, cooking, reading, genealogy, casual bird-and-critter watching, and being short.

She writes books about characters who are flawed but who somehow still manage to overcome the challenges thrown in their paths and reach for happiness with their soul mates. And while she can't tell a joke in the real world to save her life, she tries to inject her characters' lives with quirky, unintentional humor that surprises ...more

He made me feel safe, and it was like part of me recognized him from the get-go. "Oh, there you are. I wondered when you'd show up." He's the first guy I ever went on a real date with too. I didn't see the point of the process before him because I knew with other guys, things weren't going anywhere beyond friendship. I won't say it was love at first sight, but I do think we recognized something within each other as being special from day one. (less)

Do you or your husband (or maybe both) come from a big family? If no, where did you get the inspiration to write Campbell's family in FH Series? Because it's amazing to see them as a family, and it's so RARE to see good and present parents in NA and in love stories nowadays...It is refreshing and makes the reader feel part of the family. It's one of the things I most love about your books <3

We were both raised as only children, but have large, extended families. So while our families are not direct inspiration at all for the Campbells, I'll say that the Campbells are an idealized version of what family means to me, what I think it should mean if pettiness wasn't allowed to get in the way. I didn't want to write about a family that fought and scrapped and feuded all the time. I've seen that all too often in the real world, experienced it myself, and have the battle scars. Instead, I wanted to create one that truly tries to support the other members because it's them against the world and they understand that. I try hard to make them as realistic as possible without making them too perfect.

Thanks so much for the question and for the kind words. :) Happy Reading! (less)

Quotes by T.L. Haddix (?)

“It’s fine to be able to stand on your own, admirable, but I think you also need to prove to yourself that it’s okay if you don’t have to. That it’s okay to choose to not be alone. To choose to let someone support you, emotionally and otherwise.”
