Justa Verse was born Stephanie M. Clark on a cold December evening, in Mt. Vernon, NY. At ten, her family moved to Orlando, FL, where she began honing her writing skills. She'd later explore Atlanta, GA, and finally, Phoenix, AZ. 

Justa Verse holds a Masters of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from Full Sail University. Along with books on self-love, she also creates lively characters that tell of stories in hopes of relating and connecting to her melanated sisters’ journeys. Justa Verse always loved to write songs and poems long before she had the name.  Thriving in the world of spoken word, she hopes to help her readers and listeners grow in love as she continues to write just a verse.
