Bio

Stephanie Provenzale-Furino earned her MFA in creative writing from Ashland University where she studied under Garrard Conley, Kelly Sundberg, Katherine Standefer, and Terese Marie Mailhot. She writes creative nonfiction focusing primarily on fairy tales, religion, relationships, and trauma.

For her MFA thesis, she completed a book-length memoir analyzing how her religious upbringing and little girl, fairy-tale fantasies trapped her in a mentally and sexually abusive relationship.

Her manuscript, Figs in Eden, tells the story of how we really need to be brave enough to write our own fairy tale, with our own verses, our own castles. But most importantly, it’s still okay to believe in love.

When she’s not writing, Stephanie enjoys running, bowling, and playing guitar with her husband. She works as a Children’s Librarian in Northeast Ohio.
