Nancy Young

Nancy Young grew up in suburban Philadelphia on the Main Line. Since her mother was a librarian, she read her way through the collection, exhausting the children’s section early. After majoring in English and completing graduate school, she taught writing, literature, speech, and film in various colleges in Pennsylvania and North Carolina. Nancy currently lives in Fuquay-Varina, NC, a town as interesting as its name, where she worked as a reporter and the editor of the local paper. She’s still married to her high school sweetheart, and their children have grown up to be contributing members of society while still maintaining a healthy sense of humor—a necessity, given their quirky mother.
