​
As a child in foster care, reading was my favorite pastime. It offered me the treasures of travel, adventure, and perspective. My enjoyment and
fascination with different societies, real and imaginary -
especially dystopian ones - stems from way
back in my childhood.
I lived off of the works of C. S. Lewis, George Orwell, and John Christopher.
Later I found Octavia Butler and my, oh, my!
I earned a Bachelor of Science in Applied Sociology from
Texas State University - San Marcos in 2012 and set off to help the
world become a better place as a
social behavior skills teacher
for children.
But I never meant to become an author. I never intended​
to write a single book. But it's funny how destiny always finds a way to nudge you
in the right direction. Or push you. Shove, really. Like, right as the destiny train is coming it shoves you right onto the track.
Well, that's exactly what happened, friends, so here we are - a trilogy
and a standalone later. I think I'll stick around and see what else destiny has in store
for me. And whatever it has in store for you - I hope you run for it, chase it with everything you have, cause I tell you what, there's a
whole amazing world out there and
it needs you right now. It needs all of us to discover our hidden talents. And use
them. Unapologetically. Because, remember, you can be the hero of your own story.
And I have a sneaking suspicion if you follow your destiny, you'll end up
being a hero in someone else's as well.
