Olivia Swomley

Olivia Swomley writes middle grade filled with humor and heart and special attention to family, grief, love, and the twists and turns of friendship. A former children’s bookseller and a graduate of Hamline’s MFA program in Writing for Children and Young Adults, Olivia is from the Boston area, and works as an editor at Candlewick’s MITeen and MIT Kids imprints. When she’s not reading, she’s probably petting a dog or thinking about her next meal.
