B.C. Tweedt

B.C. wrote the Greyson Gray Series to give today's children a real-to-life hero who is worthy of admiration - one who searches for truth, fights for justice, and dares to do good no matter the costs. Along with Greyson, B.C. added lovable characters with signature humor and a deep plot that grows with its characters both emotionally and intellectually. He believes modern readers are longing for powerful new stories that are both clean and exciting without any dumbing down.

He has a background in film, and many readers notice how his novels read like an action movie (and would make an amazing TV mini-series someday.) Just like a movie director, he prefers to stay behind the scenes; though he has greatly appreciated how many readers have fell

Jennifer Cano

As a kid, Jen lived coast to coast across the United States (in California, Oklahoma, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and Utah) and also spent a year in Japan. For an introverted kid, all the moves meant difficulties making friends at school until Junior High. The natural gift of those years was elaborate day dreaming.

Jen has a snooty degree in English Literature and considers Agatha Christie the Queen of all things good in mystery. Her other favorite genres to read are fantasy and science fiction--anything that pushes reality aside and introduces her to worlds that only live in the imagination of another.

She lives in Utah with her husband and three children. She absolutely abhors making crafts, except once a year at Christmas time, when she takes

T.K. Riggins

T.K. Riggins started writing because of a dare. His friend was searching for something new to read, and after coming up empty handed, challenged Riggins to take action. Instead of recommending a book, he decided to pen a story of his own.

He shared an experience from his past, where he witnessed a cattle farmer deal with fetus malposition. The farmer was able to reach inside the cow, turn the calf around in the womb, and reorient the birthing position. With a little bit of tugging, some questionable language, and a healthy dose of faith, the calf entered the world and took its first breath with ease.

Growing up in the city, Riggins thought he witnessed a miracle. The calf was struggling and was surely dead, but with the help of the farmer it

Kelly Hashway fully admits to being one of the most accident-prone people on the planet, but that didn’t stop her from jumping out of an airplane at ten thousand feet one Halloween. Maybe it was growing up reading R.L.

Kelly is also USA Today bestselling romance author Ashelyn Drake. When she’s not writing, Kelly works as an editor and also as Mom, which she believes is a job title that deserves to be capitalized.
