Социальные сети:

Sarah J. Maas is an American fantasy author known for the Throne of Glass, A Court of Thorns and Roses, and Crescent City series. Her work centers on epic fantasy, romance, and coming-of-age heroines, and she is a bestselling novelist whose books have sold millions of copies worldwide and been translated broadly.

Биография и Путь Автора

Sarah J. Maas built her career in public, beginning not with a conventional publishing rollout but with an online readership. Educated at Hamilton College, where she was a creative writing major, she drafted the first incarnation of Throne of Glass as a teenager and began posting it on FictionPress at 16. The story became one of the site’s most popular submissions, giving her an early community of readers and the confidence to pursue publication seriously. That path from online fiction forums to a broad direct reader connection is still visible in her present-day author platform, which centers on an official website, Instagram presence, and newsletter sign-up for updates and bonus material.
