When she was a kid, Jayne Toman wanted to be the familiar rather than the witch because, duh, who wouldn’t want to be a magical animal? But now that she’s old and warty, Jayne boils and bubbles powerful potions with the help of her own furry sidekick, Marigold. When she isn’t stirring her cauldron, Jayne spends her days writing and eating ice cream. Jayne was born in Queensland, Australia and currently lives in Arizona, USA.
