edit data

Shelly Jarvis began working on speculative fiction thanks to a writing assignment in Mrs. Bettijane Burger's eleventh grade English class, but her passion for writing developed at seven years old when she wrote a Halloween tale about a witch and a ghost who became best friends.

An avid science fiction and fantasy reader, she spends a portion of each day dwelling in other worlds.

Shelly's biggest influences are Madeleine L'Engle, JRR Tolkien, Timothy Zahn, George RR Martin, & Patrick Rothfuss.

Shelly enjoys spending time with her wacky spouse, her wonderful nephews, and her rescue pups, Gimli, Butters, Fergus, and Pickles. She currently resides near Charleston, West Virginia, in the wild and wonderful mountains that have her heart. ...more
