Evie BlumEvie grew up on the beautiful Florida Gulf Coast and has been an avid reader her entire life. After finishing her bachelor's degree, she decided to explore the world and ended up moving to Israel, where she lived for almost a decade. While there, sheearned a master's degree in political science, worked in academia, founded her own translation and editing business, and married a pretty awesome guy. Their path led them to the San Francisco Bay Area, and Evie found her way into the world of high-tech. She has helped found and grow a hardware startup, been part of a successful software startup exit, and participated in an IPO.The pandemic gave her plenty of time-and reason-to want to escape reality, and she read approximately a million romance novels, including the entire Outlander series . . . twice. Deciding she wanted to try her hand at writing contemporary romance, she began her first fiction work this year. Figuring that the world can be a pretty rough place sometimes, she set out to add some positive energy to it by writing a fun, (somewhat) realistic love story set in a Silicon Valley high-tech startup. Ship It is her first fiction work, and she's already hard at work on the sequel. You can find her online at evieblum.com or @evieblumauthor on TikTok and Instagram. Read More Read Less
