Brigid Kemmerer started writing at school. Her first real 'novel' was about four brothers causing a ruckus in the suburbs. Those four brothers now live in the pages of The Elemental Series, so Brigid likes to say she's had four teenage boys taking up space in her head for the last seventeen years. Brigid lives near Annapolis, Maryland.
