Molly Atkins

St. Louis, MO

Molly Elizabeth Atkins lives in St. Louis with her husband, two children, and a surprisingly large dog. Fueled by copious amounts of tea, she wakes every morning at five to squeeze in some writing time before chaos takes over the house. Molly’s short story, “Obsidian Spire,” was featured in Writers of the Future Volume 33.
