S.F. Henson is the critically acclaimed author of Devils Within, a 2018 William C. Morris Award finalist, Alabama Library Association 2019 Young Adult Award winner, Kirkus Best Book of 2017, and YALSA 2018 Best Fiction for Young Adults. Born and raised in the deep south, SF graduated from Auburn University with a degree in Animal Science, which she put to great use by attending law school. Her law degree has gotten some mileage, though, giving her the experience to write about criminals and other dark, nefarious subjects. She lives in Austin, Texas with her husband, her dog, and her oddly named cat.

That's stuck with me--especially while writing "Devils Within." I interpret it to mean: don't filter your writing or your characters. Be it the language they use, the way they think, or the way they treat people. Write them the way they are. Make them real, flaws and all, and you'll connect with readers in a new way.(less)

“Ink flows like blood from a freshly cut vein. My soul bleeds onto the paper. Bleeds and bleeds and bleeds until there's nothing left. Not a single word. Only when I'm empty do I see how to fill myself again, how to start being a whole person for once.”
S.F. Henson, Devils Within

“I'm a snake eating its tail. Every time I try to move "forward," I end up worse than when I started.”
S.F. Henson, Devils Within

“My brain is a TV with poor reception.”
S.F. Henson, Devils Within
