E. L. Botha lives, works, and plays in Austin, Texas with her husband, two children, three cats and a leopard gecko. It's a full house and she loves every minute of it. Botha published her first book in 2015 and since then has published two successful children's book series. She has recently started making puzzle books and loves the challenge! When she's not writing, Botha assists other independently published authors, hikes with her family, and rescues kittens.
