AUTHOR Sari Sikstrom

When I browse in my favorite second hand bookstore, I am not looking for the current best seller, award winner or the most eye-catching cover. I search for a well read book that has an inscription, marginalia, or ephemera; which creates a dynamic secondary story about the readers before me.

While working a full-time job I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Geography from the University of Alberta. My writing is influenced by my travel adventures. I have crossed the desert by camel, drifted in a hot air balloon, floated to earth under a parachute, bounced from a bungee, sailed the Pacific Ocean, underwater photography  with the Cousteau Society,bicycled through the valley of the kings, hiked the great wall and run a marathon. What I treasure above all is the companionship of my friends.
