From a young age, Keira had a vivid imagination that took her to far off lands, thrust her in the middle of daring battles, and saw her fearlessly achieve the unimaginable. Hailing from West Texas, Keira grew up the oldest of five siblings. She was introduced to the works of Jane Austen by her grandmother at a very young age. This sparked her love affair with books and writing. As a budding author, Keira has shown that sheer determination and resilience are keys to growing in the literary arts. She enjoys writing fantasy short stories during the lulls of writing her first fantasy novel.
