Sandra Denbo and her daughter, Tamarine Vilar, live in Portland, Oregon, which is the setting for their stories. Sandra has five children, Tamarine being the youngest. Sandra has had a wealth of experiences and has met a wide variety of personalities, each with their own idiosyncrasies. This fertile bed is the source of ideas for creating the characters you will learn to love and hate. Sandra has always had the ability to clearly describe ideas and feelings.
Tamarine Vilar has one son and also lives in Portland. She has a Bachelor’s degree in English with a minor in writing from Portland State University. Because her mother loved to read, she read to Tamarine from infancy. As a result, reading became her favorite way to relax. But Tamarine has more than just a passion for reading. She loves to write as well. Professors and fellow students alike have enjoyed her writing and have encouraged her to continue her pursuit. She has the natural ability to evoke emotion, even tears, with her writing. Tamarine’s ultimate goal is to have a career in the book industry so she can help others with the same passion for reading and writing.
