As a child, I was labeled as the kid with too much energy. Desperately, I did my best to conform to the ways of the world. Later, to realize I had to be myself. As a result, my imagination went wild.

These days,I funnel my energy, exuberance, and high-jinx into my debut series, The C. Walker Adventures, beginning with, The Curse of Yama. There’s no telling where my mind will take me–and you—next.

I live with my family in Mississippi, with my three dogs, five chickens, and pot belly pig.
