Author Biography
Clara Zfin combines a passion for travelling with her life-long love of writing. She has travelled solo across Europe and then went on to secure a job as an overseas rep, which led to her spending a season working in Ibiza. Her preferred genre is children's fiction, and she is currently working on a series about a girl who is tirelessly campaigning for 'pants for sharks.' Apart from writing and gallivanting around the world, Clara tends to spend her time eating jelly-beans, buying snapbacks for her goldfish and watching The Great British Bake Off. A Teetotal Virgin in Ibiza is Clara's debut release.
