K.C. May started writing as a kid with a dream of being a professional writer. She started her career in 1990 writing technical manuals for software companies. In 2005, after she attended the Viable Paradise writers' workshop in Martha's Vineyard, her debut novel was published. Her acclaimed epic fantasy series The Kinshield Saga has reached #11 on the Amazon Kindle bestseller list. K.C. grew up in the mid-western USA and in Hawaii, and earned a B.A. in Russian from Florida State University. After a year in Taiwan teaching English and studying Mandarin Chinese, she spent twenty-four years in the Arizona desert saving homeless Rottweilers, writing tech manuals, programming computers, and cooking eggs on the pavement. She now suffers the humidity and frizzy hair summers of North Florida.
