Ellery Adams has had a lifelong love affair with both stories and food. As a child, she used to make mud pies and eat them. Over the years she became more adept in the kitchen and when she's not writing, loves to don an apron and fill her home with the sweet, buttery scent of baking pies. Ms. Adams has held many jobs including caterer, retail clerk, car salesperson, teacher, tutor, and tech writer, all the while penning poems, children’s books, and novels. She writes and creates culinary delights from her home in central Virginia.
