I am Sarah. Sarah from a large family and Sarah from the Ruhr area. Growing up, I had to strain to experience my own stories between my three sisters. Now I realize that I do like to tell my stories about my time with my family. I may be young at 21. But any realization I have yet to realize, I immediately put into a script. So I sit at the source. And the source is precious! That's why I like to show young perspectives in my books. Growing up is something magical and never stops for me. I want to touch people with these stories. I write completely honestly about the life that drives us all to despair and my shaky stand in it. I think it is possible to laugh about our despair. And I want to make you laugh just as much. I'll be honest, writing comedy is also just plain fun. As a young woman, I give my stories female main characters. I still have a lot to say about that. And with my sisters, I have at least one, two, three ideas. And then there's me!
