Allyson McCollum lives in a secluded holler in the Georgia mountains, where she writes to procrastinate on her chores and does chores to procrastinate on writing. If this method doesn't work, she reads equally twisted writers like Holly Black and Cassandra Clare or watches shows written by Neil Gaiman and Guillermo del Toro to get ideas for painful plot points and cliffhangers. If all else fails and she can't figure out how to properly torment her readers, she asks her poor husband what would work best. Their cat approves of such torture methods, and their two dogs are just happy to be there.
