About the Author

J.W. Powell was born and raised in Illinois. She has always been a Disney fan, and one of her favorite princesses just so happens to be Cinderella. She grew up in a town called Fox River Grove with her mother, grandparents, and uncle in a log cabin that her grandfather had built before she was born.

When she was one month shy of her eleventh birthday, her beloved grandfather died on September 14, 2005. He was a POW during World War II. J.W. and her mother moved to Carpentersville where she attended middle and high school in Barrington, IL. Twelve years later, on July 11, 2017, her adored grandmother followed her grandfather to the grave.                    

Writing stories was not a talent she discovered until her junior year in high school. After graduating in 2013, she started to write the story of Elizabeth Anne when she was only nineteen years old. After putting it aside for eight years, she picked it back up and started revising it into what it is today. Repulsed by the unfair accusations against Cinderella, J.W. decided to rewrite Elizabeth Anne as a very different version of Cinderella with redemption in the end. Ever since then, and with the love and support from her friends, family and especially her mother, she  has decided to pursue writing as an official career.

J.W. attended special education classes her whole school career. She was given the final diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome in 2011.
