Andrea Nicole Livingstone (born July 10, 1985), known as Nic Stone, is an American author of young adult fiction and middle grade fiction, best known for her debut novel Dear Martin and her middle grade debut, Clean Getaway. Her novels have been translated into six languages.
Stone was born and raised in a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia.
She has a degree in Psychology from Spelman College. She is African-American and is openly bisexual.
After college, she worked in teen mentoring and moved to Israel for a few years.
During a trip to Israel in 2008, Stone discovered that she wanted to become a writer when encountering a family with a story that fascinated her.
Stone wrote her first novel for young adults in 2017, inspired by American young adult novelist Veronica Roth's Divergent series because it was the first series featuring black characters that she encountered that lives until the end.
That same book later landed her a literary agent.
