About Savannah

I am originally from Blythewood, SC, and now live in Massachusetts where I proofread textbooks. I am also now a content editor for Red Rose Publishing. I graduated from Harvard College in 2005 and concentrated in African and African American Studies and English. I started writing when I was in the seventh grade, and haven't stopped since. The first book to have a deep impact on me was Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry by Mildred D. Taylor, for her writing about a strong black family in the 1930s Mississippi and all the challenges it faced. Since then, works from Toni Morrison to Maya Angelou to Alice Walker to Jamaica Kincaid, to Jack London's The Sea-Wolf and Charles Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities and too many more books to name have shaped my literary canon.

In addition to writing, I enjoy reading, singing, and spending time with friends and family.
