Kerry Orchard
I was born and raised in Calgary, Alberta, Canada where I still live with my husband, two
children, two cats and a dog.
I had an interesting life growing up and working at the racetrack. I have also done much volunteering for animal causes and in schools over the years as well as worked at different part time jobs, giving me many ideas for my characters and worlds.
I began writing to beat the isolation of staying home and to cope with a chronic illness. Fantasy is my first love. Poetry affords me an opportunity to express myself. Fantasy is wonderful because the author controls everything from the laws of the world to the character's behaviour. It is escapism at its best.
I am currently at work on my second fantasy, check out the unfinished preview, as well as a Canadian driven murder mystery, another genre I enjoy. It is my greatest hope that you will read and enjoy my first published novel and my poetry. Email me, I'd love to hear from you. Please check out my health site dedicated to chronic illnesses and pediatric illness.
Thanks for visiting and be sure to check out the links to my favourite authors and fantasy sites.
