About Summer England

Storyteller - Artist - Author

Summer N. England is my real name. I just need to get that out of the way before we go any further here. Yes, you are allowed to poke fun at me about this. 

I hold not one, nay, two degrees in Shakespeare and Performance. I'm a Cozy Fantasy author (and avid reader), actor, music director, and make a slew of nerdy, digital content. 

When I am not blabbering on stage and writing off stage, you can find me doing quite literally 17,000 different ADHD-motivated projects around my house, water-coloring, gardening, playing the decidedly evil pirate to my kid’s morally gray pirate, reading whilst walking, and not sitting still while watching When Harry Met Sally for the 6th time in one day.
