Shannan is a writer and creative contributor in the literary landscape. She previously worked in executive administrative support and event planning. In her role at Modern Mrs. Darcy she gets to dive deep into what she loves: writing posts, recording podcast episodes, and co-hosting in the MMD space. She is a runner (“I’m slower than a herd of turtles stampeding through peanut butter, but I run”) and a foodie. She lives in Huntsville, Alabama with her hubby and the Buddy Man, prompting herself and others to enjoy life on her blog and on Instagram.

Shannan has been a bookman (anyone pick up that reference?) for as long as she can remember. Since life is short and her TBR is long, her tastes are broad and her go-to genre depends on her mood. Rereads include My Oxford Year, The Artist’s Way, Zorro, and A Psalm for the Wild-Built. Fav authors include R. F. Kuang, Charlie Lovett, Alix E. Harrow, and Brendan Slocumb.
