Ashlynn grew up in Southern California, where she spent most of her youth writing stories and drawing maps of places that didn't exist. 

 

​At eighteen, she moved to Hollywood, purchased a motorcycle, and became a stunt double for kids. After the writer's strike halted studio production, Ashlynn began writing for herself. She submitted her first book, titled The Jasper, on Wattpad, where she became a featured writer on the platform and won a Watty Award. 

 

Her short story, The Westbury Faery, was then published by Tiny Owl Workshop, an award-winning micro-publisher based in Brisbane.

 

After the pandemic, Ashlynn decided to give up her apartment, possessions, and job to travel the world and pursue a full-time writing career. She is currently revising her debut novel, Blood Lies, and is querying agents.
