Sarah Courtney

Sarah Courtney has been addicted to reading since she first learned how. She carried books with her everywhere . . . to sports games (professional sports games required two books!), school, bus rides and car trips, and even when her parents told her to "go outside and play." She finds time for reading now by doing most of it on her Kindle app, which means that she can read while walking down the stairs, waiting in line, making dinner . . . Sarah loves to read fantasy and fairy tale interpretations, Agatha Christie's mysteries, romantic suspense/action, and especially variations of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. Sarah tried her hand at writing numerous times as a child, but never stuck it out long enough to finish a book. When she discovered that there was an entire fandom dedicated to her favorite author, Jane Austen, she was inspired to write her first novel. Sarah homeschools her six children, ages three through fourteen (which means that she will now always have at least one teenager for the next . . . sixteen years!). She is constantly asked, "How do you find time to write?" The answer is simply that you find the time to do the things you love. Also, getting the laundry put away is highly overrated.
