Lauren G. Flanagan has three sisters and three brothers. She attended McGill University and is married to a man she met her first week there. Together, they have three children: Aislinn, Keegan, and Brenna. They also have two dogs. She lives and writes in Vancouver, Canada, but her heart belongs to the unnamed town in "I Wed the Sea," her debut novel. Follow Lauren on her bookish Instagram page @laurengflanagan_reads.
