JA Johnston

JA Johnston is a native New Yorker, growing up in Richmond Hill, Queens and spending summers on Long Island. JA is the youngest of six children, four sisters and a brother. The aunt to eighteen nieces and nephews.
She came to South Carolina to attend college, where she met and fell in love with her future husband at a Clemson Football Game (neither one of them attended Clemson).
JA is a preschool teacher for twenty years. In college, she loved creative writing classes and would make up other stories, but never wrote them down, until now.
She now lives in the upstate area of South Carolina with her husband Stephen, three daughters Rebecca, Emma, Coraline(Yes she’s named after the movie!) and a miniature dachshund named Ginger.
