Margherita Selicato was born in Rome and changed from an Italian to an International school in grade 7. The change shook her world, but thanks to the love and support of her friends and family, she began writing at 13, and self-translating her first novel, which has already been published in Italian and has won a literary prize. At 18, she now lives in Cork, Ireland, where she is studying as well as continuing her writing.
