A.F. Steadman a grandi à la campagne, dans le Kent, où elle aimait se perdre dans des mondes fantastique et griffonner des histoires dans des cahiers. En 2019, elle a reçu un prix dans le cadre d'un master d'écriture créative à l'université de Cambridge. Avant de se consacrer à l'écriture, elle faisait du droit.
