Shelley Coriell

YA writer Shelley Coriell was born and raised in the Sonoran Desert and currently lives in Arizona with a computer wizard, three princesses, and a wild lizard that hangs out under her desk and eats the crumbs from her keyboard. A professional journalist for more than twenty years, she's worked as a newspaper reporter, award-winning magazine editor, and public relations executive. These days she writes stories about teens on the edge of life-changing moments, love, and a little bit of crazy. When she's not writing, she bakes cheesecakes and listens to voices in her head.
