Brodi Ashton is a young adult novelist who made her debut into the genre by publishing “Everneath” the first of the “Everneath Trilogy” in 2012.
Before then she had written “Neverfall,” a novella that is something of a prequel to the series. The first two works in the series were titled “VOYA Perfect 10S.”

She is also the author of “Diplomatic Immunity” and “My Lady Jane” that she co wrote with Jodi Meadows and Cynthia Hand. Ashton went to the University of Utah from where she graduated with a bachelor’s degree in journalism.

She would then do an international relations masters degree from the London School of Economics. She now makes her home in Utah, where she lives with her husband and children.

Ashton was born in Salt Lake City, Utah, which is where she still lives to this day. She learned very early on when she was in journalism school that it was always better to use active voice rather than passive voice when telling her stories.

During her school years as a journalism major, she wrote a lot for major media houses, particularly for TV. However, it was not until she started writing about the memories she had of her grandmother who had died ten years earlier that she started to write for fun.

It would take quite some time to finish writing her first manuscript and find an agent who could not get it published. It was only when she found another agent that she found her first success. The manuscript for “Everneath” would sell in two days.

As for how she got introduced to young adult literature, she has said that it was when she read Madeline L’Engle’s “A Wrinkle in Time.”

Brodi Ashton never had a formal outline for what would become her “Everneath” trilogy. Once she sold her first novel, she was driven to write the second and the idea for her second just came. In fact, with both novels her editor had to remind her of previous chapters and paragraphs she had sent them before asking her to try to stick with the idea.
It was always a roller coaster of writing for her as she writes by discovery and writes to take different directions that she can sometimes get lost in all manner of rabbit holes. The “Everneath” trilogy is the story of a teenager named Nikki Beckett who gets into the fantastic world of Everneath.

It is a place where immortal creatures love to feed on the emotions of humans living in despair. Nikki has the chance to go back to her old life but letting go has never been easy. In fact, Jack, the love of her life, will not let her go and intends to go back to Everneath to take her place.

“Everneath” is a mesmerizing story of immortality, loss and love by Brodi Ashton. Last spring, Nikki Bennet had gone missing as she was sucked into Everneath. But she is now back to her family, her boyfriend and old life for a time before she is to be banished to Everneath and the underworld for good this time.
