Kelley Armstrong is married with three children; the family lives in rural Ontario.[2] She was born in 1968, the oldest of four siblings in a "typical middle class family".[1] After graduating with a degree in psychology, Armstrong then switched to studying computer programming at Fanshawe College so she would have time to write. Her first novel Bitten was sold in 1999, and it was released in 2001. Following her first success she has written a total of six novels and a number of novellas in the Women of the Otherworld series, and her first crime novel, Exit Strategy, is forthcoming. Armstrong has been a full-time writer and parent since 2002.[2]
