Kim Williams-Justesen is a Salt Lake City native who was one of those kids whose mom had to come in and take the flashlight away so she would stop reading and go to sleep. She earned a Bachelor’s degree in Speech-Communication from Westminster College, and a Master of Fine Arts degree in Writing for Children & Young Adults from Vermont College of Fine Arts. Kim captures the voice and dialogue of today’s girls, along with the drama, the fun, the self-doubt, the awkwardness of this age, and does so with great humor.
