About the Author

Jean Davis writes an array of speculative fiction, including short stories, a space opera series, stand-alone novels, and children's books about her chickens.

When taking a break from fictional people, she spends time with her musical husband, a small flock of ducks and chickens, and an attention-craving terrier. Occasionally, she ventures outside her home in West Michigan to play in her flower garden, visit the local breweries, and eat gluttonous amounts of sushi.
