Alex Moran is the author of The Things That Held Us Up, a coming-of-age story that explores friendship, identity, and the messy process of growing into yourself when life doesn't go according to plan. Drawing inspiration from emotional, character-driven storytelling, Alex focuses on flawed, layered characters navigating love, loss, and creative ambition. With a background in social work, Alex brings a grounded, human understanding of relationships and emotional resilience into their writing, shaping stories that feel intimate, honest, and unpolished in all the right ways.
Their work often centers on young women finding their voice in the middle of chaos, art, and self-discovery. When not writing, Alex is developing new stories that continue to explore the tension between who we are, who we were, and who we're trying to become.
