About Shelley Sackier

Shelley Sackier grew up in a small farming community in Northern Wisconsin continually searching for ways to grow warm. Realizing she would never be able to enjoy ice cream like real people should, she left the state and lived the blissful life of a traveling musician. Discovering her stories needed more space than two verses, a bridge and a chorus could provide, she began storytelling in earnest. And then in Virginia. Which is where she lives now and continues to write. Her first published novel, DEAR OPL, is a tale about a snarky, overweight thirteen-year-old, who suffers from loss everywhere in her life except on her body. Her second novel, THE FREEMASON'S DAUGHTER (YA historical fiction), will be published in April 2017. She pens a weekly humor blog with illustrator Robin Gott at Peak Perspective. You can also find her on Twitter @ShelleySackier.
