Sunshine Bacon was born a lover of stories in Ohio’s only square county. She read books to escape her unhappy childhood wrote fiction about everything she craved: big happy families, international adventures, and unconditional friendship. 
 
Though she's filled her adult life with those things, Sunshine still loves stories. If you meet her, she’s bound to ask you to share one of yours.
 
While traveling the world, Sunshine's handed out business cards with a range of titles and collected pieces of characters and ideas for stories. Much to her partner's chagrin, Sunshine scrawls those ideas on envelopes, lollipop wrappers, fuel receipts, and (once) that little paper bit that keeps a nursing pad sticky until it's time to use it.
 
Her novels Life Before and Antipodes had humble, torn-paper-scrap beginnings, but became books that captivated readers with their authenticity, adventure, and heart.
 
Sunshine Bacon keeps her passport ready, but calls the Pacific Northwest home. She lives in Seattle with her partner, three growing children, bulging bookshelves, toppling stacks of tabletop games, and the scent of something delicious baking in the oven.
