<p><span>B.T. Litell was born and raised in Ohio but lived all over the US while serving in the Navy before settling back in his home state. Deceived by the idea of "how hard can it be," he started writing fiction in high school and finished his first novel during his sophomore year. He fell in love with the fantasy genre after reading works by J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Robert Jordan, and others. He spends his days protecting other people's computers while drinking coffee and daydreaming about made up worlds, fictional people, and monsters that would probably attack him. You can find him playing games with friends and family, watching the same 5 or 6 comfort shows over and over, drinking craft beers, gabbing about <em>Star Wars</em>, <em>Lord of the Rings</em>, <em>The Witcher</em>,<em> Doctor Who</em>, Fallout, Elder Scrolls, collecting notebooks that are too pretty to ever write in, and staring at dice he doesn't need.</span></p>
