Gibson was born in Virginia and grew up on the east coast of Florida, reading and writing stories deemed "too much" for her age level. She graduated with degrees in journalism and English, then spent her post-college years immersed in Asheville's art and music scene, writing for newspapers and working on the bead and jewelry circuit. She now lives the small-town life with her family, dividing her spare time between crochet projects, hiking, sporadic yoga practice, and an ever-growing stack of books she will definitely finish reading someday.
