She is listed in databases as an early Cyberpunk author along with Gibson and Stephenson, which tickles her. More recently, her psychic-suspense novel ISLANDS won the Chanticleer Paranormal Suspense Award and The Hollywood Book Festival Genre Award, and is described by reviewers as "an intellectual thriller" and "a superior suspense novel....a fast read, a stomping vivid ride." Her near-future thriller THE ARIADNE CONNECTION, a Chanticleer Global Thriller Grand Prize winner and Cygnus Speculative Fiction award winner, draws on her travels through the Greek islands and research into pandemics and geomagnetic reversals. "A rocket-paced thrill ride that delivers complex, engaging characters in a laser-sharp plot... while tapping into the deep roots of mythological tradition." (Chanticleer Reviews) "Pulses with admirable energy." (William Dietrich, NY Times bestselling author) Her novel PAUSE has won First Place in the Somerset Awards for Women's Fiction. "A must-read novel of friendship, love, and killer hot flashes." (bestselling author Mindy Klasky)
Sara has indulged her lifelong wanderlust with extended travels in out-of-the-way corners of the globe (inspiring some of her novels); operating a nuclear reactor at Hanford; treasure hunting and teaching scuba in the Caribbean and Honduras; and owning a farm in Southern Chile. Now resettled in her native Northwest Washington, she taught creative writing for several years at Western Washington University. She stays grounded with her native-plant restoration project in her sprawling Squalicum Creek backyard, shared with wild critters and her cat, dog, and paleontologist husband Thor Hansen.view less
