Meet Veronica Roth.
Veronica Roth is a twenty-two year old Chicago native. She recently graduated from North Western University's creative writing program. She often worked on the rough draft of Divergent instead of doing homework while she was attending the North Western University. But lucky for her, the substituting of her draft of Divergent for homework brought her debut book (Divergent ) to spot number six on ‘New York Times’ bestseller list. She is currently working on the third book in the Divergent trilogy.
