Sandra Carrington-Smith is a mother, writer, life coach, blogger and self-titled "life observer," currently living in Raleigh, North Carolina, with her husband, three children, two cats and a goldfish.

A native of Italy, with poetry published there as a young adult, Sandra grew up in a fascinating environment: her father is a devout Catholic, her mother a Voodoo priestess, her maternal grandmother a Strega witch (a centuries-old practice of Italian witchcraft), and her paternal grandmother a Christian healer. Although these paths are often perceived as being at odds with one another, Sandra realized at an early age how similar they are; she learned to travel through life with an open mind, viewing her journey from multiple angles. This early lesson in perception has allowed her to create a full, diverse, loving life experience, and in turn offer guidance to those in search of the same.
It is Sandra's vast knowledge of Voodoo which makes her background even more fascinating. She has crafted her own path in the realms of a more elusive, secretive following of Voodoo, which made her uniquely qualified to write the intriguing novel, The Book of Obeah, now available for presale at Amazon and most other bookstores. The released date is scheduled for June 16 2010.

Sandra's other book, Housekeeping for the Soul: A Practical Guide to Restoring Your Inner Sanctuary, a self-improvement non-fiction, will be released in April 2010, and it is also available for presale.
