Ria Sharan is a schoolgirl by day and poet by night. Her favourite thing to do is to snuggle on the couch with a book and her big fluffy chocolate Labradoodle, Snickers!
Her love of poetry stems from her early days, around two years old, when her parents used to read Lynley Dodd's Hairy Maclary to her, with little Ria finishing off the sentences and giggling with joy. From a young age she was enraptured by poetry's ability to connect with people. This fascination has continued to follow her to the present day.
Her debut book is The Bright Soul is an Acquired Taste, an insight into the highs and lows of emotions and how we can grow from our experiences.
