Rough Writer Tour Around the World: Sacha Black

Bold, driven and fabulous, Sacha Black is the energy and inspiration behind the Bloggers Bash event, its awards, and competition. As an author of a YA sci-fi series, she’s learned much about weird scientific phenomenon and villains. Sacha created a workshop series in book and text about how to create one of a book’s most crucial character — not the hero, the villain.  She’s also a Rough Writer.

    Sacha is a great ambassador for writing flash fiction. I also love the way she gets people together, bringing the online community into the reality of flesh and blood “in person” with the Bloggers’ Bash.
