ⓘ About Zanib Mian
Zanib Mian is a published author. She grew up in London in the United Kingdom and lives there to this day. She was just a young girl when she first began writing stories and poetry. She was known by her friends, teachers and family to be able to rhyme about just about anything that meant something to her. She might even let you see some of her eagerly writing if you are lucky, which has been preserved in a safe for over two decades. However, you would have to visit her at her little Shire hobbit house in order to see it. Zanib worked as a science teacher for a few years once she had left university. But ever since she was young she had her passion for writing stories and poetry and decided to pursue that.
