Ciannon Smart

Ciannon Smart is young adult, fantasy, and literary fiction author best known for her debut novel “Witches Steeped in Gold.” The author, who has Jamaican heritage, was brought up in a small town of South East England. She grew up as the only daughter in a house filled with energetic males. As such, she had very few people to talk to and from a very young age she spent much of her time reading. Smart had a preference for the anarchy she found in the stories she loved to read rather than real life happenings. She loves to read about unpredictable, wily and wilful villains as the heroines in her young adult works. When she is not writing, the author can be found painting, reading or listening to music.
