From the Buccaneer...Author Visit

by Amanda Jacobs, Junior

Mepham High School was fortunate enough to hold an author visit with author Sarah E. Fine via Skype in the library on Tuesday, February 26th. She read and highlighted her favorite parts of her newest book titled, Sanctum. This author visit was sponsored by the National English Honor Society and was also an "Elite Event." At the end of the visit, eight books were raffled off. Sarah Fine graduated with a bachelor's degree in Psychology from Hope College and she later got her PhD in Clinical Psychology from the University of Delaware. A couple of years ago, Sarah wrote her first novel, but according to her, it was horrible. Luckily, she had more success with her second book, Sanctum. Sarah plans to write and publish more books in the near future. Sanctum is a novel about 17 year-old Lela's journey to find her best friend, Nadia who killed herself a week ago. Lela comes across several hardships during her journey to find her friend. To learn more information about Sarah E. Fine and her novel, Sanctum, visit http://sarahfinebooks.com/.
