In a Nutshell:

 

Born in Buffalo New York in April of 1986, Sarah Jean Maefs grew up with her mother, father, two older brothers, and one younger sister. She attended school locally and always expressed herself through art where she excelled at an early age; winning school and county awards for her works. After reading several books by talented, but young authors, she decided not to let her dyslexia hold her back and gave a go at writing herself. She hasn’t looked back since.

Now 21, Sarah writes and draws still while also working and taking care of her family. She has dedicated years to learning and researching both history and lore of Vampires, Witches, and Lycanthropes. With this knowledge she has built an entirely fresh world of her own consisting of imaginative and unique characters.

Sarah credits Disney among her inspirations, though you would be hard-pressed to find its influence within her writings, “It’s there if one looks deep enough” she says. Other inspirations are Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, Laurel K. Hamilton, and even J.K. Rowling. She also has hopes of being published and says “I am a huge Harry Potter fan, and knowing that Jo was rejected by three publishers before finally finding one that would print her work inspires me to never give up and to not draw my self-worth from others whose approval is so fleeting.”

Sarah is currently working on her three book trilogy and has future works planned such as a prequel, and another series.
