Kandi Steiner

Дата рождения: October 13, 1989 – Cleveland, Oklahoma, United States

Kandi Steiner is a contemporary romance novelist known for emotionally intense, angst-heavy stories featuring flawed characters, second chances, and sports romance.

Биография и Путь Автора

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/))
