Julie C. Donaldson grew up all over the world as an Air Force brat before finding her way to Utah, where she earned a degree in English from Brigham Young University. She has written a number of short stories and articles for the Friend and Ensign magazine. Her first book, Don’t Throw Rocks At His Window, was published by Deseret Book in February 2011. When she’s not writing, she enjoys dancing with her kids, staying up late with a good book, playing piano duets with her sister, and sneaking out on dates with her husband. She is also mildly obsessed with Jane Austen. She and her husband live in North Salt Lake, Utah, with their four children.
