Samantha Quinn

Biography Samantha Quinn has always loved stories, whether they were from her voracious reading habit, or family history passed down through generations. It was as natural progression to begin writing the stories that swirled in her mind, going on to publish in fiction and non-fiction. An avid traveler, Sam has had the pleasure of visiting several countries, usually in warm tropical climates, where she fed her imagination by people watching. Sam grew up in a small Canadian town in South Western Ontario and hasn’t strayed too far from her family and grown children. She and her husband are tackling home remodels and going for long walks with their pup, Georgia On My Mind.
