Author Biography

Julie Blair has always believed that fiction is one of life's great pleasures. From the time she was old enough to hold a book, escaping into worlds where anything is possible and endings are usually happy has been a favorite pastime. Growing up a tomboy before it was fashionable, Julie attached herself to sports, especially softball, which culminated in her pitching in the Women's College World Series. Finally forced to grow up and get a real job, she landed in restaurant management for a decade before entering the rigors of chiropractic school. She has been a chiropractor for over two decades. Julie has sat atop the ruins of Machu Picchu and stood five feet from mountain gorillas in Uganda, but her favorite place is curled up on her couch with her Labradors, Magic and Mandy, reading or writing. Living in the quiet of California's Santa Cruz Mountains, she enjoys gardening, hiking, red wine, strong coffee, smooth jazz, and warm fall afternoons. Never Too Late is
Julie's debut novel. She's hard at work trying to give voices to other characters with stories to tell--their struggles, their triumphs, their love affairs--mostly in self defense, hoping they'll stop waking her up in the middle of the night with snippets of dialogue or ideas for scenes and settings.
