Sahar Sabati

The author of multiple children’s books, a MG/YA series, and short story collections, Sahar was born the first of three siblings and many cousins. Thrust in the role of head of the brood at a very early age, she honed her imagination by creating stories and plotlines the cousins could play to all summer long. But soon, her interest in the paranormal took its toll on said brood. Worried on the long-term effects (as well as potential therapy costs) of this continual exposure to increasingly scary stories her oldest was (too) expertly weaving for their terrified ears, her mother gave her a typewriter – and a writer was born. Many books, a couple of screenplays, countless short stories, numerous essays and two blogs later, Sahar also joined the ranks of Blogcritics, delving into the world of reviews.
