Biografia e Percorso dell'Autore

Scarlett St. Clair developed her writing life from an early and sustained attachment to books. A citizen of the Muscogee Nation, she grew up in Eufaula, Oklahoma, became a committed reader in middle school, and began writing at thirteen after reading The Lord of the Rings. She later earned a bachelor’s degree in English writing and a master’s degree in library science and information studies, then spent about five years working as a librarian and information services manager in Oklahoma City. That background remained a visible part of her public author profile as her fiction career expanded. ((https://scarlettstclair.com/about/))
