  <about><![CDATA[Shelena Shorts graduated from George Mason University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English and a Master’s degree in Education. Her passion for igniting a spark in teens led her to teach American literature for six years in traditional and online classrooms. When she’s not interacting with students in all possible realms, she’s writing novels geared toward the wants of young adults and the “young at heart.” She currently lives in Virginia with her husband and three young children.
