About the Author

Sarah Frank is a teen author and poet from Tampa, Florida. At age 14 she received a publication contract from BeaLu Books for her first novel, One Chance. It was published in 2018, winning a silver medal in Juvenile Fiction, age 7-12 category by the Florida Authors & Publishers Association, Inc. Since 2018, Sarah has visited and spoken to over 4,000 students, teachers, media specialists and parents on her local book tours. What started out as a visit to speak to 4th and 5th grade students at her local school, Westchase Elementary, quickly took on momentum as word spread among principals, teachers, and media specialists about Sarah's unique connection to students. Her message and story about making dreams come true through hard work and dedication resonated with kids beyond improving their desire to read One Chance and write stories of their own. Getting Two Secrets, the second book in the One Chance Series, out has been a labor of love and massive juggling. Besides visiting elementary and middle schools, Sarah attends Howard W. Blake High School of the Arts, where she majors in creative writing and has been president of her class during her freshman, sophomore, and junior years. On top of being a member of 13 clubs, she founded Blake's first debate club, class council, and co-founded the Best Buddies chapter. Sarah works hard at schoolwork taking many advanced placement classes. She is also an active member and officer in her religious youth group. Sarah attends the W.I.N.D. (Writers In Need of Direction) program for teens at the University of South Florida. Both this group and the ICE Writers camp she attended for six summers are sponsored by the Tampa Bay Area Writing Project (TBAWP), a chapter of the National Writing Project. Sarah credits these camps for helping her learn about writing. Through these camps, she began to think of herself as a writer. Sarah's always busy but she makes time for her writing. It's her outlet, her escape, and her whole world.
