Person
A. G. Howard wrote Splintered while working at a school library. She always wondered what would&;ve happened had the subtle creepiness of Alice&;s Adventures in Wonderland taken center stage, and she hopes her darker and funkier tribute to Carroll will inspire readers to seek out the stories that won her heart as a child. She lives in Amarillo, Texas.
