AUTHORS
Jaclyn Weist
Author
Jaclyn is an Idaho farm girl who grew up loving to read. She developed a love for writing at a young age and published her first book in 2013. She met her husband, Steve, at BYU, and they have six happy, crazy children who encourage her to keep writing. After owning a bookstore and running away to have adventures in Australia, they settled back down in their home in Utah. Jaclyn now spends her days herding her kids to various activities and trying to remember what she was supposed to do next. Her books include the Silver Script Series; Endless: A Modern Cinderella Tale; The Princess and the Prom Queen and The Princess and the Sorceress; Magicians of the Deep; Leana; and the Luck series, which helped feed her obsession with all things Irish.
