Allie Jo Andersen

YA Fantasy Author

Welcome!

I’m Allie, a YA Fantasy author of stories that take you on an epic journey and still bring a smile to your face. Growing up as the only homeschooled kid in church, I know what it’s like to be like the “little guy” who doesn’t feel seen. I write tales of heroes who wouldn’t be the first ones picked, who choose to fight for good and true in the end, and reflect hope.

There are too many heavy and depressing books as it is. I’m on a journey to share stories that warm your heart, make you laugh, and leave you feeling more encouraged.

Will you join me on this quest for stories sprinkled with joy and light?

Welcome to A Day in the Life of Your Friendly Neighborhood Ro... where we lip-sync while we bake 😂

Vibe check for my upcoming flash fiction story! Does this seem like a story you'd read? 👀

Looking for your next fantasy read? Check this book out! "The Weaver Trilogy" by @linzyafranklin are one of my favorite fantasy series because it has everything you could want from a fantasy series, from an underdog hero who's actually great at what she does (without being a Mary Sue who leaves everyone in the dust on the battleground), a vibrant ensemble cast, and a really fascinating magic system! It masterfully weaves (no pun intended 😆) some slightly more mature themes into the tale without it feeling forced, and leaves readers with a hope-filled message by the end. I highly recommend checking it out!

I've had other stories published before, but this one feels different, in a way.

Clearly, I've done a lot of growing up over the past 8 years. 😂 And honestly, there was a lot of hardship this girl had to go through, fight through, and finally bring to the throne of Jesus before she could fully realize the impact of God's grace, goodness, and love.

If not, here's your reminder to get crackin'! 🥚🐔😂

About the Author

Allie Jo Andersen grew up believing she was secretly a fairy. Ever since the disappointment of her humanity set in, she’s been weaving tales of adventure that entertain and instill truth in her readers’ minds. If she’s not coming up with new worlds to explore, she’s probably running her gluten-free baked goods business, wrangling a rabbit or chicken in the backyard with one of her siblings, or plotting victory in the latest family game.
