Philip Chavanne was born in Shreveport LA., and began writing fiction at the age of 20. In an effort to discover stories of interest he traveled the world living out of a backpack, spending all of his resources on experiences. Chavanne amassed 50 stories over ten years and six continents, which has resulted in a significant debut novel, "The Early Tales of Snow and Oakham." Chavanne's unique voice and brilliantly developed characters give the reader an adventure they will not soon forget.
Chavanne manages a working ranch in the Texas Hill Country with his wife Andrea, and their two daughters.
