Meet Stephanie
Author. Friend. Storyteller. Striving to be brave every day.
A storyteller since childhood, Stephanie M. Braun began crafting her stories at the family dinner table. The middle child of a large family, she relished this opportunity to relay every minute of her day, until she hit about fourth grade – when her parents told her she had to share her news last so the rest of her siblings could get a chance to speak. It was her first lesson in editing.
These days stories remain a major part of her life, as she aims to write adventures that center on connection and found family. When she's not writing she can be found hiking through the Middle Tennessee woods, looking for the magical in the mundane, and seeking to be brave every day. She and her husband and children live in Nashville, Tennessee with their dog, Chaucer. Their home is filled with creativity, lots of dinnertime storytelling, and never quite enough houseplants.
"I write because I don't know what I think until I read what I say." – Flannery O'Conner
