Author has written 19 stories for Fantasy, General, Love, Life, Family, and Humor.

Hello, I'm Sarah. I'm a student at Columbia University, majoring in creative writing with a concentration in poetry. I'm also very involved with music, and sing all different genres, though I usually focus on classical operatic repetoire. I find that I am especially inspired by astronomy and psychology when writing.
