About Me

Annastaysia Savage is both a writer and artist. She earned her BFA in Fine Art, with honors, from Arizona State University. She is one residency shy of a MA in creative writing from Wilkes University and is currently pursuing an MFA in sculpture and jewelry design from The Academy of Art University.

Both writing and art have always been in her life, beginning at age 5 with her fist publication of a short poem and her first art exhibition entry that took first place. She has several short stories published in the last few years, her most recent a flash fiction horror piece for children and young adults in Crow’s Nest Magazine called “Grimalkins” and a short story in the anthology: JournalStone’s 2010 Warped Words for Twisted Minds.

She writes everything and anything, from memoir to horror to young adult fantasy. She is a member of The International Women’s Writing Guild, The Association of Writers and Writing Programs, The Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators, The National Art Education Association and The National Museum of Women in the Arts. She currently resides in North Western Pennsylvania with her husband, dog, two cats and eight fish, all of whom give her plenty of inspiration and fodder for the imagination.
