My name is Sab, my pseudonym is S.R. Severn.
I was born in London, England and from a young age displayed signs of having a wild and creative imagination. I possess a keen eye for detail and interest in art and books. At twelve, the first romance book I picked up was a Mills & Boon publication. Since then I've been helplessly dedicated to happy endings and true love. Romance books and writing is what defines me and remains to be one of my greatest joys and obsessions. I obtained an English Creative Writing degree at the University of Greenwich to further improve and professionalise my writing skills. To this very day, my imagination often takes me to safe and intense places (think Wonderland but crazier), often distracting me from reality, but I get the ideas down on paper once I eventually return to reality. My first Fantasy Romance book started off as a short experiment, after wanting to create my own romance story. A year long experiment which I finally built courage to share with the world. I published it in February 2014 but as I had no professional insight from an editor, I have unpublished it since then with the plan to rewrite it. I have been working on different projects since the pandemic (which hasn't been easy for anyone). I've had a lot of setbacks and change of plans. But onwards and upwards. |
