M.J. Hastings is the oldest (and bossiest) of five sisters, which explains how she grew up to become an attorney, one who refused to have the imagination beaten out of her. She graduated from law school with honors and went on to serve as a federal law clerk and practice complex civil litigation. Her greatest education, however, was her childhood in rural Kentucky, which left an indelible mark on her life and her writing. Her debut novel FIRSTBORN, the first book in a romantasy trilogy, is set for publication by Sourcebooks in Fall 2026. M.J. can be found in Louisville, wrangling two small humans and one middle-sized canine.
