S.C. Grayson
I've been reading fantasy novels since I was a little girl stealing books from my older sister’s shelves, and that has developed into a love of writing and storytelling.

Sofia Shab

Like any true creature of the night, she’s full of contrasts: a lover of both cute outfits and gothic lore, sunshine and shadows.
