Sabrina has loved reading and writing from the time she was a little girl and hopes to one day publish a successful YA fiction series. When Sabrina isn\u2019t writing, she is most likely to be found at any Arizona sporting event or planning a trip to Sedona to browse crystal shops. Even more likely at Starbucks, nursing her caffeine addiction with friends.","sameAs":["https:\/\/x.com\/thesabrinakeno"],"url":"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/phoenix\/author\/skenoun\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/phoenix\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2790"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/phoenix\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/phoenix\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/phoenix\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/22"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/phoenix\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2790"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/phoenix\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2790\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/phoenix\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2790"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/phoenix\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2790"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/phoenix\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2790"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
