Susan Badaracco

Susan Badaracco is a young adult, fantasy, and contemporary fiction author that is best known for “The Oath” series of novels. She usually draws inspiration from travel, mythology, and experience to write stories of high stake adventure exploring bonds of family and friendships. She published her debut novel “The Oath: Maddy and Silenus” in 2017 and has never looked back since. Outside of her writing endeavors, Susan is a pediatrician and works at the Kids First Pediatrics. Her work involves retrieving interesting objects that children hide in ears, consoling their anxious mothers, and laughing at made-up child jokes. Badaracco has said that her work is intended to help others who have not been as fortunate to be blessed with friendships, health, and family. She was born and brought up in Texas and hence her ties to the state are still strong even though she now lives with her husband, cat, and dog in Oklahoma. She often travels out of state to visit her grownup son and daughter. When she is not writing her novels she may be found in the library, hiking, or tending to the homegrown herbs that she often uses in food preparation.
