If you listen to my mom (six-time published author Kathy Aarons/Krevat), I’ve been writing books since I was a toddler and she wrote down the stories I narrated for her! I like to think I’ve improved a little since then, writing self-insert fantasy stories in middle school, and a full medieval-fantasy trilogy while studying Computer Science in college, amongst other projects.
In 2016, I began writing the Tales of Mundane Magic series. It follows Gertie and Bridget Mallon through a world that has smart phones and laptops and cars, but with magic woven in. With their ghost dog Ziggy, their Pied-Piper-esque friend Ernest, and their necromancer-in-training bestie Vivien, the sisters give us a peek at everyday life in a magical world.
In 2018 I self published Volume One, and now all four volumes are available anywhere books are sold!
What’s being an author like? How do you do it?
