WELCOME
I am Madigan Thompson, a founding graduate of the Author Conservatory and crafter of YA folklore-focused fantasy and sci-fi that weave themes of found family, hope, and the weight of expectations and perfectionism.
Growing up near the majestic mountains of Utah, I was inspired to write about the epic adventures of mighty heroes and their fantastical lands. You can often find me bringing my imagination to life through my artwork, binging anime with my dad, or adding more books—especially by Tolkien, Lewis, and Andrew Peterson—to already overflowing shelves.
It was brilliantly compelling and truly a page turner. From the banter to the horrific tension, it kept me wanting more. Madigan Thompson turned myth into verisimilitude.
