edit data

Les Abernathy is the New New York Times Bestselling author of dozens of books. Or at least he will be if he ever gets determined enough to write them. As of now, he has one finished book and two others that are halfway done to the point where he downright needs to finish them. The good news is they will probably release long before the next book in a certain fantasy series turned TV show. He has no doctorate, has never been on anyone’s top 100 lists, or has ever worked as a deckhand on a pirate ship. He writes the stories he wants to write in the way he wants to write them, and that’s all he needs. He currently lives in Montgomery, Alabama with his loved ones, friends, and systemic racism.

I will forever have the conviction that I am the master of my fate, the captain of my soul. Yet, I find myself unable to find another word to describe what state my wife and I
