Larson's passion for writing can be traced back to her childhood, where she filled the pages of a Little Mermaid notebook with stories. Although her tools have changed over the years, her love for storytelling has remained a constant. In her day-to-day life, Larson is a dedicated mother to four children and is married to a supportive husband. They share their home with a Maltese dog named Loki, and Larson finds time to write throughout the day and during the quiet nighttime hours. Her husband often jokes that she should have a degree in "the art of multitasking," as she manages to balance her writing with her family responsibilities.
In her spare time, Larson can be found at the gym, working off the consequences of her well-known sugar addiction. She maintains an online presence on Instagram and TikTok under the handle @SaraBLarson, where fans and fellow writers can connect with her. Larson's commitment to her craft and her ability to balance her personal and professional life have made her a respected and successful figure in the literary world.
