Joshua McHenry Miller

Most people use vacation days to take actual vacations. Author Joshua McHenry Miller saves them for when JK Rowling releases a new Harry Potter book.

A nerd long before the world realized it was awesome to be geeky, he’s loved superheros, dragon slayers, and jedi knights as long as he can remember. Eventually, he wanted to do more than simply consume adventure stories; he wanted to create them.

For the last ten years he’s studied story craft, and the fruit of his work has culminated in YA novel Tyrants and Traitors. It’s an award winning, fantastical retelling of history’s King David. If you imagine a snarky love child between The Chronicles of Narnia and the Percy Jackson series, you’re on the right track.

When he’s not writing till his fingers turn white (he has poor blood circulation), he works in north Austin. He’s also a huge Marvel fanboy, enjoys gaming (both the tabletop and video game variety), and would spend every day swimming in open water if it were possible. He also loves connecting with his readers, so stop by his website at joshuamchenrymiller.com or say hi on twitter @talesofascribe!
