Ellie Ann Burke is a writer querying her young adult science fiction fantasy about a girl and the sudden grief that leads her to discover a world light years away. 

Raised in the Finger Lakes region of western New York, she lives for all things family, food, farming, and wide open spaces. Apart from reading and writing, she obsesses over iced hazelnut coffee, whole food baking, castles, lochs, space, and sheep. 

Ellie currently resides in the state of Virginia with her husband, son, dog—Odysseus, and cats—Katniss and Chubbs.
