Paz Ellis has been writing since childhood. She began her journey as a writer with poetry and short stories. She grew up in a household of voracious readers. When she was about twelve years old, her mother gave her a wonderful gift—her first hardcover book. It was a beautiful copy of Little Women. She looked at it and realized that her name would be on a book cover one day. However, her first book was a product of grief. She wrote a memoir, Plantains and the Seven Plagues, several months after her mother passed away, and has not stopped writing since that day. Her recent books are a series… Just Finn Book One and More than Just Finn: Just Finn Book two, inspired by her brother with Asperger’s Syndrome.

Paz was born and raised in New Jersey, and recently returned to the Northeast after living in Florida, North Carolina, and Oklahoma. She has two young adult sons. In addition to being an author, Paz is also a voice talent, editor, photographer, history buff, and an avid reader.
