Author
HarperCollins/Versify
Nicole D. Collier is the debut author of JUST RIGHT JILLIAN, a new middle grade novel from HarperCollins/Versify.
Nicole grew up just south of Atlanta, GA, the only child of an accountant and a public school librarian.. After a short stint in journalism, she has spent the past two decades in education. First as an elementary school teacher, and now as a partner in an executive coaching, training and consulting firm.
She writes for all ages, but Nicole's first love is middle grade contemporary fiction. Young people are trying to discern who they are vs. who they want to be, and how to bridge the gap between the two. Nicole’s stories are in that gap. In particular, she writes about the interior lives of Black girls as they seek their authentic selves.
A self-proclaimed ever-victorious woman, Nicole has been known to run, dance, and turn cartwheels on sunny days.
