Hey there! I’m Shayna Purdy; a 15-year-old indie author from the Metro Detroit area. I’ve been an avid reader my entire life, and I’ve been writing stories ever since I learned how to form complete sentences. At thirteen, I began writing my debut novel, A Dance of Destiny. On June 1st, 2024, It will be available for purchase!

When I’m not writing, you can probably find me reading, doing my schoolwork, practicing my favorite sport, binge-watching a show, or listening to music. My favorite genre of book, and my favorite type of show to watch, is Romantasy (Fantasy+romance if you haven’t heard the term), but I’ll watch or read just about anything. (As long as it’s not strictly informational. Though even then sometimes I can make an exception).

I’m so happy you’re here on my website, and I hope you decide to check out my work! Don’t forget to sign up for my email list and follow me on social media so you don’t miss my next release!

-XOXO, Shayna
