Safa Ahmed is a British-Pakistani content marketer and Psychology undergraduate. Ever since she scribbled down her first story-a mystery featuring stolen cookies and an incriminating teddy bear-it's been her dream to be a writer and publish books that celebrate joy, heartbreak, swoony love interests, fierce female characters, and everything in-between. When she's not writing, she is usually re-reading her favourite fantasy novels, wreaking havoc in the kitchen or expanding her ever-growing TBR pile. You can find her on Twitter, Instagram and TikTok as- @safaswritings
