Hi, I'm Sarah Flocken
I write books with unhinged plots and real human emotion. My debut novel, BE WELL, is coming out in June 2026.
BE WELL
In recession-ravaged 2009 Los Angeles, new college graduate Ann Ward takes increasingly desperate measures to avoid moving back to her desert hometown, where her televangelist father looms large. Along the way, she is drawn into Sagebrush, a holistic wellness collective and maybe-cult. What could go wrong?
If you love stories that manage to skewer both wellness culture and megachurches while following a “disaster girl” protagonist flailing into adulthood during the weird years of the late 2000s, this one’s for you.
