About Aisley Oliphant

16.jpg

Aisley Oliphant is a non-fiction author with a passion for reading, the writing craft, and productivity strategies that magnify creativity. She runs a blog called "The Plotter's Apprentice," where she shares about her fiction publication journey, writing tips, book reviews, and productivity experiments. 

Aisley has been writing fiction since she learned how to hold a pencil, creating wild stories about mermaids and far-fetched adventures with her friends. Since then, she has written nine books, all in varying degrees of "good" and "complete," and in genres ranging from cyberpunk, epic fantasy, and zombie apocalypse. She received her Bachelor's degree in Creative Writing from Weber State University, became a writing tutor for the WSU Writing Center, worked as a writer and editorial assistant for Utah Business Magazine, and was a freelance writer for her church.

Aisley received her Masters of Publishing at Western Colorado University while preparing to start developmental revisions on her debut novel, Demon Fall. She has also begun production on a graphic novel series with artist Annabelle Ok, which plan to self publish in the near future. Aisley's editing projects include the republished The Elusive Pimpernel by Baroness Orczy and Gilded Glass: Twisted Myths & Shattered Fairytales anthology, are available through WordFire Press in July 2022. In summer 2024, her short story Pearls will debut under the pen name A. C. Oliphant

On the weekends, Aisley can be found running, reading, or geeking out about Spider-Man, dinosaurs, and Harry Potter. She loves snuggling her husband and cats, going on camp trips, cooking delicious dinners, and having a good time with friends and family.
