Raised by a musician and activist in the yuppie college town of Chapel Hill (where she still lives), Allison Stalberg is a Fiction MFA student attending Southern New Hampshire University. As an asexual, neurodivergent woman, Allison writes stories that inspire rebellion, independent thinking, and radical love.
In addition to being a fiction writer, Allison also worked in journalism for seven years and currently conducts interviews with authors for Knee Brace Press, an online literary magazine dedicated to chronic illness, disability, mental health, and neurodivergence.
When she’s not writing, Allison can be found snuggling her cats, making her way through her massive to be read pile, and/or playing video games.
