Victoria Shanks is the oldest of five siblings raised on the Bible, Bigfoot stories, and creek mud. A graduate of The Author Conservatory, she writes fantastical adventures about faith and family—stories to remind her readers they are never alone. Between midnight writing sessions, Victoria can be found taking long walks in the woods, brewing tea lattes, thrifting Louis L’Amour paperbacks, or muttering to her black cat Fish.
