I'm April Henry, the author of nearly 30 mysteries and thrillers for teens and adults. Basically, I kill people, but only on paper. This is my space to talk about my writing and my life (often the same thing).
April Henry is the author of twenty-eight mysteries and thrillers for teens and adults. Her latest book is Girl Forgotten, out from Little Brown. She holds a blue belt in Brazilian jiujitsu, and once paid to be kidnapped.
I write about little-known historical women, my books and other peopleโs books, and I share the ups and downs and pivots of the writing life. My newsletter is funded entirely by reader support. Sign up for free! Or consider becoming a paid subscriber.
