Charlie Nicholes Holmberg was born in Salt Lake City, Utah to two parents who sacrificed a great deal to give their very lazy daughter a good education. As a result, Charlie learned to hate uniforms, memorized all English prepositions in alphabetical order, and mastered the art of Reed-Kellogg diagramming a sentence at age seven. She entered several writing contests in her elementary years and never placed.
Being a nerd, Charlie started writing fan-fiction as a teenager in between episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation. She became a full-fledged band geek with mediocre talent in high school, where she met her husband Jordan Holmberg. While she strove to win his attention by baking him cookies and throwing ramen noodles at his house, he didn't actually ask her out until six years later.
Charlie began taking writing seriously during her undergrad at Brigham Young University, where she majored in English and minored in editing. She finally won a few writing contests. She graduated with her BA in 2010 and got hitched three months later. Shortly afterwards, her darling husband dragged her to Moscow, Idaho, where he subsequently impregnated her.
In summer 2013, after collecting many rejection letters and making a quilt out of them, Charlie sold her ninth novel, The Paper Magician, and its sequel to 47North with the help of her wonderful agent, Marlene Stringer. Someday she will own a dog.

Ceony Twill arrives at the cottage of Magician Emery Thane with a broken heart. Having graduated at the top of her class from the Tagis Praff School for the Magically Inclined, Ceony is assigned an apprenticeship in paper magic despite her dreams of bespelling metal. And once she’s bonded to paper, that will be her only magic…forever.
Yet the spells Ceony learns under the strange yet kind Thane turn out to be more marvelous than she could have ever imagined—animating paper creatures, bringing stories to life via ghostly images, even reading fortunes. But as she discovers these wonders, Ceony also learns of the extraordinary dangers of forbidden magic.
An Excisioner—a practitioner of dark, flesh magic—invades the cottage and rips Thane’s heart from his chest. To save her teacher’s life, Ceony must face the evil magician and embark on an unbelievable adventure that will take her into the chambers of Thane’s still-beating heart—and reveal the very soul of the man.
From the imaginative mind of debut author Charlie N. Holmberg, The Paper Magician is an extraordinary adventure both dark and whimsical that will delight readers of all ages.
还行,这姑娘后期的经历感觉有点牵强,因为怀疑她没这个能力
评分本来以为设定挺好但没想到剧情就是玛丽苏啊
评分作者的构思真心妙,但后半段完全就是明朗少女求爱记,有点点失望。顺手google了作者后面两部书,歪国读者们好像都被女主的玛丽苏和玻璃心雷到了……
评分Kindle Unlimited里唯一几本不是猛男封面的书,看名字还挺有趣,并且有免费的有声版,于是我买了想在开长途的时候听。结果我以为的奇幻斗法热血少年成长系小说果然并不存在,从老师被挖心开始就尼玛是个纯正的言情啊!(其实前面也是言情但是隐藏的还算深,你把它当成师生情也可以)卷毛后来听了一小部分,说:我非常惊讶你竟然会看这本书。但是路上3个小时没事做只能听完它……打斗部分简直没脸看,magician入门这么简单哦感觉门槛很低姐也可以嘛~
