Hi, I’m Carley Hoffman
I spent five years writing my debut novel, Providence. A YA dystopian, Providence holds a special place in my heart since books like The Hunger Games and Divergent shaped my reading life back in middle school.
A few things about me. I love reading, writing, anything Lord of the Rings and Star Wars, and LEGO! I also dabble in art and I LOVE listening to music (I have playlists for everything). But most importantly, I love my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and everything I do, especially writing, is for His glory.
I have been writing since I was about 11 and what started as a little hobby has become my passion and hopefully someday my job! I am currently in college while also trying to write whenever I can. I love writing and hope you love these stories as much as I do.
What you can expect from my books
Here are a few things you can expect when reading my work
A little romance :)
I love a little romance. Hate me if you must but I think (clean) romance is a great topic to address within stories and I myself love reading it! My books will not always strictly be romance driven but you can 9 times out of 10 expect a little bit somewhere.
Many genres
While I absolutely ADORE the dystopian genre, I do not plan to only write dystopian books. I already have plans on a possible fantasy book and I may eventually dabble in a little contemporary. Who knows!
It’s clean
As an avid reader, it is often hard to find clean, appropriate fiction. While my books do and will cover more serious and sometimes graphic material, I work to make sure not to include any explicit language or content.
Strong Morals
I am a firm believer that having good morals within a story make the story stronger. This doesn’t have to be an obvious moral lesson but in my books I do try and have common themes within the book itself.
