A Bit About The Author

Caelyn Shaner grew up in rural Van Wert, OH, where her love for fantastical fairy tales drove her to tell stories of broken heroes and complicated villains from the time she was a small girl. Inspired by her father's interest in superheroes and science fiction, her brothers' hours logged battling enemies in quest-driven video games, and her time spent onstage as a theater actress, she aspires to create worlds and characters that open the heart to beauty and pain and all that lies between. Having published articles in County Living Magazine, and the Van Wert Times Bulletin as a ghost writer for the musical Little Shop of Horrors, Force of Nature is her debut full-length novel and is part of the series The Shifter Chronicles. Two sequels are finished and in editing, and a third is currently being written. To keep her skills sharp, she writes short stories on her joint blog Insanifiction with Emily McGuff. Shaner also runs a writing and reading centered YouTube channel under her own name.
