About the Author
Kelly Barson grew up in Michigan. As a teen in the 1980s, she wore both her hair and her pants too pouffy, so she has a ton of regrets from those years. Now both her hair and her pants are likely to be purple. Time will tell if more regrets will surface.
She writes using her initials K.A. because many of her favorite authors like C.S. Lewis and S.E. Hinton did, so she thought that would feel more authorial. Even though she is an author, she's not sure what authorial is supposed to feel like. She's guessing it's supposed to be serious. If so, it hasn't kicked in yet.
