Samantha Clarke is a twenty-one year old college student, entering her fourth year of study. She is majoring in social work and plans to one day work with the early intervention program in her state. Samantha has always been fascinated with reading and writing, and started writing short, illustrated stories when she was ten years old. She became serious about her writing when she was eighteen and began working on her first novel. She hopes that one day she will be successful enough to become a full-time novelist.
