Shanti Hershenson

Shanti Hershenson’s first two novellas were published when she was in the sixth grade, although her writing journey started long before then. Ever since she could hold a pencil, marker, or crayon, she was creating stories. They started from pictures, mere scribbles, and eventually, turned into captivating tales.

​

She lives in California with her parents, sister, and furry friends. Besides writing, she enjoys skateboarding, fencing, being a regular teenager, and of course, reading. 

​

She writes in a variety of genres, including Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Contemporary, although she mostly sticks to Sci-Fi.

​

As an advocate for anti-bullying, you may find her doing volunteer work or performing powerful poetry at open mic nights.

Born on October 15, 2007, Shanti is sixteen years old and a junior in high school.
