Nichole Gibbons is a YA author. She has been writing since she learned to put a number two pencil to paper. It started with poetry and the short stories that filled her head and has evolved into the dream of being a full-time writer and author. Nichole loves writing in the YA genre because she loves to write fast-paced stories full of young people just discovering the world and learning to spread their wings.

Nichole Gibbons has worked in storytelling for the past fifteen years. She has written and directed short films, worked in social media management, in communications, and as a published wedding, portrait, and interior photographer. Nichole’s career as a writer started with her first published poem at the age of ten. She has since had many poems in small publications and used in marketing and inspirational films. She discovered her passion for writing fiction in 2020 when she was stuck at home during the COVID-19 pandemic. It started with writing fan fiction as a way to pass the time. This quickly evolved into writing original fiction, and she felt like she was finally doing what she was born to do.
