Ashley Earley grew up in Georgia, where she spent most of her time running wild in the woods of her backyard, building forts to create her own fantasy worlds, obsessing over books and experimenting with her writing.

Today, she lives in Colorado with her dog and still spends her time devouring any book she can get her hands on, writing and working toward a B.A. in English with an emphasis in Creative Writing. She also enjoys snowboarding, exploring, annoying her dog, constantly eating chocolate, and sharing her writing adventures on her Instagram.

Her Thriller/Suspense short story, Chasing Hair of Gold, won first place in the 2016 Writer’s Digest Popular Fiction Awards.

Writer's block is difficult to shake.
If I'm just kind of stuck, I'll turn up my music really loud and sit at my computer, rereading what I just wrote until I come up with a way to plow through.
If it's really bad writer's block, I'll walk away and think about it for a while until I come up with a way to get through it. Sadly, this takes days or weeks...(less)

As writers, we tend to be too close to our work to correct the story elements that have holes in them or correct those minor grammatical errors thanks to the tricks our eyes play on us. Editors are meant to pinpoint what you’re missing, how things can be reworked, what should be taken out, a

Quotes by Ashley Earley  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Depression is a funny thing. Some days you have the strength to get up out of bed and attempt to live your life as a normal human being, but others…you just don’t want to leave your room and socialize with the outside world—the world that you hate on days like this. You stay secluded in a tiny space, left alone to the thoughts that eat at your brain until you finally sit down and let them be thought.”
Ashley Earley, The Darkest Light

Lonely.
My heart grips as the word crosses my mind. So many different feelings come with the word, not just loneliness. The word went beyond its definition. Loneliness has a deeper meaning to those who truly know what it means to be alone.”
Ashley Earley, Alone in Paris

“The hours tick by as I lie in bed.
Memories keep surfacing, tormenting me into unbelievable sadness. I can't bring myself to move. I can't fight the memories that keep filling my thoughts. I stay curled in the fetal position as each memory plays out. I can't stop them from coming. I can't make them go away. Nothing can distract me. I can't block the memories, so they continue to come.”
Ashley Earley, Alone in Paris

Topics Mentioning This Author

“No matter how much suffering you went through, you never wanted to let go of those memories.”
haruki murakami

“I'd rather be hurt all at once for a specific reason, than be hurt slowly every day.--Ashlyn”
Kendall Ryan, Unravel Me

“Fall down again, Bella?'
No, Emmett, I punched a werewolf in the face.”
Stephenie Meyer, Eclipse

“Your emotions are the slaves to your thoughts, and you are the slave to your emotions.”
Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat Pray Love: One Woman's Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia

“So what’s your story, Pidge? Are you a man-hater in general, or do you just hate me?”
“I think it’s just you,” I grumbled.
He laughed once, amused at my mood. “I can’t figure you out. You’re the first girl that’s ever been disgusted with me before sex. You don’t get all flustered when you talk to me, and you don’t try to get my attention.”
“It’s not a ploy. I just don’t like you.”
“You wouldn’t be here if you didn’t like me.”
My frown involuntarily smoothed and I sighed. “I didn’t say you’re a bad person. I just don’t like being a foregone conclusion for the sole reason of having a vagina.” I focused on the grains of salt on the table until I heard a choking noise from Travis’ direction.
His eyes widened and he quivered with howling laughter. “Oh my God! You’re killing me! That’s it. We have to be friends. I won’t take no for an answer.”
Jamie McGuire, Beautiful Disaster
