Meet the authors
We have always been close, bonding over various books, tv shows, and hobbies. In the last couple years we realized those shared moments were building towards something bigger.
That realization sparked the idea that grew into The Nosam Chronicles. What began as a way for a father and daughter to stay close has become a story that bridges two generations. Our hope is that what brought us together brings others together as well!
