Terri M. Prada

From a young age Terri M Prada loved words and writing. Her grandmother a natural poet wrote letters in verse and iambs. Her grandmother read Emily Dickinson, while Terri listened in the crib. This intrigued Terri until she began writing her dream journal, poems, and creating short stories in high school. She completed her Fantasy Gateway to Maitha: Spirit's Quest in 1994. This Young Adult Fantasy, originally conceived, came from a dream she experienced for a week straight. A prolific reader, Terri applied what she read to her life and her writing, also applying dreams proficiently afterward.

While in her 3rd stint in college, Terri decided on a career in Communications with an English emphasis. Completing her Bachelors of Arts, Terri graduated from the University of Minnesota Duluth in 2007. During this period, she developed a love for poetry and prose, which culminated in the Rules And Prada Dreams Series she drafted and edited with writing partner and aunt, Candace Clawson.
