Lila Shortcuts (14 page)

Having spent most of her life in London, Sarah quit her job in the non profit sector in 2009 and took off on a round the world trip with her husband and princess-obsessed daughter on a mission to find a new place to call home. After several months in India, Singapore, Australia and the US, they settled in Bali where Sarah now spends her days writing by the pool and trying to machete open coconuts without severing a limb. She finished her first novel Hunting Lila just before they left the UK, wrote the sequel, Losing Lila, on the beach in India, and had signed a two book deal with Simon & Schuster by the time they reached Bali.

A third book,
Fated,
about a teenage demon slayer; which was written during their stay in California, was published in January 2012 by Simon & Schuster

Her next novel,
The Sound,
published in August 2013. She is currently co-writing the Hunting Lila screenplay and working on several other books and screenplays (multi-tasking is one of her favourite things).
