About Isabelle

Isabelle, better known as Shaggy from The Shaggy Shepherd on social media, is a reviewer, proofreader, beta reader, and SFINCS founder. She enjoys fantasy, scifi, romance, and nonfiction the most but is up for trying just about anything. She also tries her hand at writing sometimes. Some of her favorite authors are Ryan Cahill, Stephanie Archer, and Megan E. O’Keefe. Originally from Germany, she’s spent half her life in the US but will be moving back home in a few years. Outside of books, she loves animals, sewing, tea, and nature.
