About me

Grace Safford is a writer from a town in Northern Vermont so small many Vermont maps list it simply as a lake. She spent her childhood wandering through the woods, getting bitten by mosquitos, and writing on any piece of paper she could get her hands on. Grace’s genres of choice are realistic fiction, fabulism, and nature writing. Her work has appeared in literary magazines such as Twist in Time, Firewords, Lucent Dreaming, and Corvid Queen. She is in the midst of writing the first draft of her novel and a nature-based activity book manuscript. 

More about Grace:

Favorite foods: Chili, sushi, toast, Reese’s peanut butter cups, chocolate milk

Addictions: Buying notebooks she says she’s going to use but will only fill half-way. Also buying socks. Grace has over 80 pairs of socks. They’re all insanely ugly.

Favorite activities: Taking long walks in the sun and looking at everything she passes, taking naps, going to the gym, making baked goods in mugs, watching B-rated movies, learning new things through educational YouTube videos, making really bad puns

Favorite books in no particular order: The Cheese Monkeys by Chip Kidd, Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate Dicamillo, Full Cicada Moon by Marilyn Hilton, When the Moon was Ours by Anna-Marie McLemore, The Hen Who Dreamed She Could Fly by Sun-mi Hwang

Least favorite things: Global Warming, mosquito bites, driving, when people don’t use the Oxford Comma

Fears: Boats, spiders, the dark, becoming bitter

Goals: To publish her novels, to make people happy, to make people think, to be an extra in a zombie movie, and to see an adult humpback whale
