about this author
J. Anderson Coats has dug for crystals, held Lewis and Clarkâs original hand-written journal and been a mile underground. She has a cool surgery scar unrelated to childbirth, she reads Latin, and she's been given the curse of Cromwell on a back-road in Connemara. On a clear day, she can see the Olympic mountains from her front window. On the foggy ones, she can smell the Puget Sound.
J writes historical fiction set in the middle ages that routinely includes too much violence, name-calling and petty vandalism perpetrated by badly-behaved young people. Without the Walls, J's debut novel, is forthcoming from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt on 17 April 2012.
