Bethany Wiggins

Bethany Wiggins has always been an avid reader, but not an avid writer. Seriously!!! She failed ninth grade English because she read novels instead of doing her homework. In high school, she sat alone at lunch and read massive hardback fantasy novels (Tad Williams and Robert Jordan anyone?). It wasn't until the end of her senior year that the other students realized she was reading fiction--not the Bible


Seven years ago, Bethany's sister dared her to start writing an hour a day until she completed a novel. Bethany wrote a seven-hundred page fantasy novel that she wisely let no one read--but it taught her how to write. Since then she has completed six more novels, each one a little better than the one before.


The fifth book she wrote, "SHIFTING," is represented by Marlene Stringer of the Stringer Literary Agency, and will be published by Walker Books September 27 2011!!!


Her second novel, STUNG, will be published by Walker Books in 2013.
