Joy Hensley

 

Born and raised in Virginia, Joy spent time wandering up and down the East Coast before settling back down. From being a barista to editing, writing commercials for television to being a middle school/high school English teacher, there's nothing she’s not willing to try. That includes going to military school (on a dare), hiking 600 miles of the Appalachian Trail, and playing in the muddy Chesapeake Bay with her students!

 

A 2003 graduate of Greensboro College, she received the Excellence in English award for her fiction and poetry. In 2007 she graduated from Long Ridge Writers Group's Breaking Into Print class, and in 2009 she finished their Shape, Write, and Sell Your Novel classes.

 

Now, between reading, watching the CW and putting Veronica Mars, The OC, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer on repeat, hiking, kayaking, walking, doing obstacle course races and having fun with my husband and two sons, she continues to write. She is represented by Mandy Hubbard at D4EO Literary Agency.
