Hello!  If you came to this webpage, chances are you want to know a little more about me (or maybe you got here on accident and have already stopped reading).  

​

My name is Ashley Bustamante.  I am an author and illustrator, wife, mother, daughter of God, and heiress to the throne of Neptune.  I also make up stuff in my About section to see if people pay attention.  Reading for the win!  

​

I spent most of my life in Arizona but currently live in the Midwest with my husband, our two daughters and our son.  My tastes in literature are varied; I love Jane Eyre and To Kill a Mockingbird, but I also won't turn down The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy,  a good graphic novel, or anything by Beatrix Potter.  And of course, I have an unapologetic love for YA, particularly dystopian, fantasy or sci-fi. 

​

If you have a question for me, shoot me an email or leave a comment.  I'm happy to chat!
