Tasslyn Magnusson
Visiting Writer, WCYA
Profile
Tasslyn Magnusson writes books and poetry for kids. She writes poetry for grown-ups too! Because everybody needs poems!
She received her MFA in Creative Writing for Children and Young Adults at Hamline University in St. Paul, Minnesota in January 2017. She lives in Prescott, WI (really, really close to Saint Paul, MN) with her husband, two kids, and two dogs.
When she’s not writing in her “hidey hole” as her children call it, she’s busy reading for literary journals, working with the Society for Young Inklings and in general doing whatever she can to be near books and kids and other writers.
