전기 및 작가의 여정

Kandi Steiner grew up in Cleveland, Oklahoma, later spent much of her adult life in Florida, and is now based in Tennessee. Her interest in storytelling began early: she has said she started writing around age ten, and by sixth grade she was producing and handing out her own newspaper to classmates. At the University of Central Florida, she studied Creative Writing and Advertising/PR and minored in Women’s Studies. College deepened her commitment to writing, but the decisive turn came after graduation, when she made it a 2013 New Year’s resolution to write and publish a novel. She followed through with Tag Chaser, released on October 13, 2013, her twenty-fourth birthday. ((https://kandisteiner.com/about/))
