Behenel Kharsma
Raised in southwestern Montana, Behenel fell in love with the Rocky Mountains at an early age and still finds awe and inspiration in them with every sun rise and sun set.
Always the creative soul, she reached for inspiration for her next source of creativity in writing. First published as a child poet in the Montana based magazine Ghost Town Quarterly, she has co-written in the Western series, The Big Muddy, with Chris Hoffert. Her first solo writing has been with the Dragon Carrier series, based in both Montana and Ireland.
Behenel started off in college with a vocal performance degree at The University of Montana in Missoula Montana and finished with her degree in Native American Studies from BHSU in Spearfish, South Dakota.
Her precocious son keeps her on her feet and is her continued inspiration to be the best human she knows how to be. She enjoys fishing and camping with her son, hiking through the woods and finding peaceful profound moments of the soul.
Behenel defines herself as "quirky with a side of awesomeness."
Some of her favorite authors are Gary Zukav, Maya Angelou, Kent Nerburn and Christopher Paolini.
