Sara Raztresen is a Slovene-American writer, Christian witch, and graduate of Emerson College's Popular Fiction and Publishing MFA program. She has had short stories, non-fiction, and poems published across several online literary magazines, and her debut novel, The Glass Witch, explores the personal themes that mark her own life: struggles of cultural identity, religious misinterpretation, and self determination. As the daughter of an immigrant raised with one foot in two worlds, and a person drawn to all things mystical and strange, Sara draws on her cultural heritage and religious experiences, blending them with the fantasy of her work. Her writing is an attempt to explain the world she sees, deliver the insight she gathers, and discover how all the world's pieces fit together.
