Esme Zur, And The I Of The Age is the first book in the series, published for L.A. Estabrook. Her passion for writing started at a very young age. Writing poetry and short stories in middle school. The writing continued in college with children's books. Estabrook would say writing is in her blood with her father, grandfather and great grandfather all writing in some form or fashion.

I fell in love with the genre after reading Fahrenheit 451 in high school. There is something about thinking about the future as this mess that can be set right by a victor, champion, dreamer. It’s a struggle that we can relate to. Solving the world's problems to set everything right. Focusing on that brings me peace and joy.

My stories embrace this reality of a mess and bring about a solution for the world, reliving that pressure of life. Focusing on changing the world for better, is a happy ending story that many people long for.
The plot of the story line came from my sadness over my sixth grade daughter saying “No I don’t want to continue doing coding because no other girls are taking that class”.

My daughter was good at something that was recognized by others and the only reason she did not want to pursue it, was that other females were not doing it. Inside that enraged me and right then I decided to have the plot of the story about embracing the talent God has given you.
This event coincided with me getting serious the summer of 2019. For me writing was my own embracing of my talent that I had ignored most of my life and that became the fuel for writing the book.(less)
