About this author

I'm the author of the novels If Andy Warhol Had a Girlfriend, Pug Hill, Through Thick and Thin, and City Dog. My essays have been included in several anthologies including Everything I Needed to Know About Being a Girl I Learned from Judy Blume, and Howl: A Collection of the Best Contemporary Dog Wit.

My newest book, A Pug's Tale, will be out June 7, 2011.

I live in New York City where I teach creative writing. I'd love to hear from you at alison@alisonpace.com.

“She's never really wanted to be the only person, she's never been such a fan of being alone.”
Alison Pace, Through Thick and Thin

“Maybe Ian doesn't come from london at all, but from Idaho. And not the potato part of Idaho, but the crazy, inbred parents locking their children up in a cabin, away from schooling and vitamins, guarding 'em safe with a twelve-gauge shotgun, part of Idaho.”
Alison Pace, If Andy Warhol Had a Girlfriend
