Ahoy folks,
My name is Santiago Muguiro. I am a writer based in Connecticut, currently studying English literature and continuing a lifelong love of storytelling. I was born in Mexico City, and the journey from there to here has shaped not only my voice but the values at the heart of everything I write.
​
Though I often write in fantastical fairy tale worlds, the themes I explore, faith, identity, struggle, and grace, are deeply rooted in real human experience. I draw inspiration from many places, but especially from God, the timeless works of J.R.R. Tolkien, and the enduring magic of the Brothers Grimm.
​
Stories, for me, are a way of seeking truth and inviting others along for the search.
