Biographie et Parcours de l'Auteur

Publicly available biographies of Charissa Weaks emphasize a self-directed literary education more than a formal academic backstory. She has said that she first entered publishing circles in 2009, then built her craft through writer groups, workshops, conferences, conventions, and repeated coursework rather than overnight visibility. That apprenticeship unfolded alongside family life in Tennessee, where she lives just south of Nashville. Before her breakout as a novelist, she was also active in professional communities such as the Historical Novel Society and her local Romance Writers of America chapter, and she helped assemble anthologies under the Once Upon banner.
