Samantha Traunfeld is the author of the Blood-Cursed series. Her love of stories began when she was about twelve--back when she could read a whole book in a day and wrote lots of stories featuring cute ghosts. Now she writes stories about badass women, sharp weapons, and banter-y relationships. When she isn't writing, she's usually cuddling her dog, starting a new craft project she might not finish, or trying to figure out how video games work.
