SARA ELLA - KEYNOTE
Sara Ella is the award-winning author of the Unblemished trilogy and Coral, the upcoming twist on Hans Christian Andersen’s The Little Mermaid. She spends her days throwing living room dance parties for her two princesses, raising her little prince to be a king, and conquering realms of her own imaginings with her swoony husband by her side. She may or may not be obsessed with #Bookstagram, which feeds her current addiction to bookish tea and candles. A lover of fairy tales, she believes “happily ever after is never far away.”
