Tracy Clark is a young-adult writer because she believes teens deserve to know how much they matter and that regardless of what they're going through, they aren't alone. In other words, she writes books for her teen self. 

 

She grew up a "valley girl" in Southern California but now resides in her home state of Nevada with her daughter and son. She's an unapologetic dog person who is currently owned by a cat. 

 

Her debut novel, SCINTILLATE, was inspired by her enchantment with metaphysics as a teen, seeing it as the real magic in life. It is the first book in The Light Key Trilogy. Her YA thriller, MIRAGE, will come out from Harcourt Houghton Mifflin in spring of 2016. 

 

Tracy is a lover of words, a private pilot, and an irredeemable dreamer.
