N.M. Thomas

I was born in France and moved around a lot with my parents. We ended up in Paris area when I was little. I've always liked to spend time on my own and found refuge in books.

I lived around Paris area for several years and decided to move to England after high school to improve my English (yes, just like that!) It wasn't easy to be in a country and a part of Britain itself where I could not understand people talking to me. The accent was so different that it took me about a year to become fluent. I stayed there for four years and decided to go back home to Paris. I met my husband, who is American, in Paris and then moved to the United States.

I've always loved literature and foreign languages. I speak fluent French and English, and know some Russian, Italian, Spanish and German.
I started to write poems when I was a teenager. My dad actually influenced me a lot, he used to write beautiful poems in French (and I keep telling him he should publish them!)So, I carried on writing poems until I decided to start writing books.

I've got three amazing children who keep me on my toes all day long so I only get some time to write at night, but I would not change that for the whole world!
And I find inspirations from the music I listen, Lifehouse, The Killers, Casting Crows, Fireflight and others, but also and mainly from instrumental music, original movie soundtracks (those I love!)
