Ansley Lail is an alumnus of Appalachian State University and UNC Charlotte. Her background is in elementary and reading education, and she is currently teaching at the preschool level. Goodnight Tiny is her first published work, and it's very near and dear to her heart because her daughter is the inspiration behind it. When Ansley gets a break from her mom duties, she loves to bake sweet treats, go outdoors, read romance and mystery novels, and spend time with loved ones. Ansley resides in North Carolina with her husband and daughter.
