K.T. Anglehart has always known she wanted to tell stories. Much of her writing inspiration stems from Scottish and Irish folklore, as illustrated in her debut young adult urban fantasy novel, The Wise One, and its sequel The Twin Flame, the first two installments in The Scottish Scrolls series.

Anglehart believes that a great book is one that incites you to change in some way. She hopes her readers will learn to find magic all around them, connect with nature, form lasting friendships, and keep following their excitement.

A devoted academic and speaker of three languages, she holds a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism; a graduate certificate in Scriptwriting; and a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing.

When she’s not writing, diving into magical reads or studying folklore, Anglehart loves hiking, exploring cities and their local myth (of course), antiquing, amateur painting, and Netflixing with her high-school-sweetheart-turned-husband, Andy. They live in Toronto with their three pets: Nessie, a mysterious mutt rescued from Puerto Rico, and Onyx and Sterling, their troublemaking bunnies.
