J.M. Northup is a native Minnesotan, who lives a nomadic life. The whole process of writing books, including editing, formatting, cover art, reading, and reviewing, fascinates her. She handles all these facets within Norns Triad Publications.
Julie values her family above all things. After three decades of marriage, she still considers her husband, Dusty, to be her best friend. Together, they raised two amazing daughters and four fur babies. Today, they are blessed with four grandchildren, whom they adore.
Definitely a cat lady, Julie also loves otters. Currently, her favorite shows are The Big Bang Theory, Young Sheldon, and Resident Alien. She has a taste for coffee with sweet cream, red wine, and a refreshing glass of ice water.
