KFPL is pleased to present Sarah Raughley, YA author of the The Effigies trilogy and The Bones of Ruin series.

Sarah Raughley grew up in Southern Ontario writing stories about freakish little girls with powers because she secretly wanted to be one. She has been nominated for the Aurora Award for Best Young Adult novel and works in the community doing writing workshops for youth and adults. 

Her latest series, The Bones of Ruin, releases its second novel The Song of Wrath in April 2023.

Her research concerns representations of race and gender in popular media culture, youth culture and postcolonialism. She has edited special issues in academic journals such Safundi, Popular Music and Society, and Atlantis: Critical Studies in Gender, Culture and Social Justice. She’s also written freelance pieces for The Conversation, Quill & Quire and Zora Magazine.

This interactive online program will be held on Zoom. Registration will close five minutes prior to the event. It is recommended that participants download Zoom in advance.
