About Me

Talysa Sainz is a young adult fantasy author who believes life’s deepest truths can be found in fiction, and magic is as essential to life as breath. Reading and writing give voice to her soul. Talysa works as a freelance editor and spends her free time at the library or volunteering for the League of Utah Writers. Always fascinated with the structure of words, she studied English Linguistics and Editing at BYU. She writes in the rare moments her kids are quiet. Talysa especially loves exploring mountains, eating chocolate, collecting uniquely nerdy jewelry, and having pun wars with her geeky husband.
