Sara Kuhns

Sara Kuhns is a Chicago Native who headed to the West Coast after teaching English for ten years in some of the most troubled neighborhoods in the Chicago and Phoenix public school systems. She has been intrigued with the pull of good versus evil in modern society and the possibility that one is not exclusive of the other. She is inspired by the ability of people to maintain their faith despite the odds; the seemingly eternal search for purpose and belonging; and the idea that love, no matter how or where we find it, will save us. As part of her research she spent time with homicide detectives and at the morgue, learning to see urban violence from a different perspective. She finally concluded that despite the ugliness that exists, it is far outweighed by the beauty of the relationships we forge as we seek to overcome it.

When not writing, Sara may be found roaming the streets of Los Angeles with her dogs, taking pictures, reading, napping with her cats, exploring the local art scene, drinking vats of coffee, and daydreaming...because, of course, that's where all good stories begin.
