Lucy lives in Somerville, Massachusetts. She grew up in Boston and attended Williams College in the Berkshires before spending many years in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. 

After five years of editing books, pitching story ideas and getting LOTS of coffee at Alloy Entertainment, Lucy sold her debut novel in a two-book deal to HarperTeen. DREAMOLOGY was released in 2016, followed by LITERALLY a year later. At Alloy, Lucy fell in love with story development, the art of high-concept, and creating properties with a great hook. In both her books she enjoys creating funny characters, strange scenarios, and playing with big romantic tropes: What if you met the boy of your literal dreams? What if your life played out like a YA romance? Her work has now been translated into seventeen languages.

In addition to writing books, Lucy has spent the last eight years working and consulting for mobile storytelling at companies such as Episode, Netflix, NBC Universal, Radish, and Crazy Maple Studio, where she continues to hone her skills of quick story pacing, big cliff hangers, and the more romance the better!

When she's not writing, Lucy can often be found baking, taking photographs, heading off on a weekend adventure, obsessing over new TV shows, or having what she feels are perfectly acceptable conversations with her dog, Ernie.
