About the Author... 

     Hi, my name is William, and I like to write stories. Sounds like an admission at some kind of recovery meeting. Most of these stories turn out to be YA adventures. Both Writing and music have been a passion of mine since I can remember. 
     I was born in NewJersey, but moved to Florida, and then to Georgia at a young age. I grew up in the Augusta, GA area, then moved to Athens, GA in 2001. In 2007, I graduated from the University of Georgia with a Bachelors Degree in Psychology (Minoring in Anthropology).
     My ‘Sebastian and the Afterlife’ series was published by TWCS Publishing House. Sebastian and the Afterlife was a paranormal young adult fantasy series consisting of ‘Sebastian and the Afterlife’ (2011), ‘Agents of the Reaper’ (2012), and ‘Forever Awakening’ (2014). TWCS has since closed its doors, and Sebastian and the Afterlife books are currently out of print. But the rights to the books have returned to me, and I hope to release second-editions of them sometime in the not-too-distant future.
     In the beginning of 2022, my next manuscript 'Will's Corvette' was published by Deeds Publishing in Athens, GA. It's a young adult adventure with some sci-fi elements. In October of 2023, my time travel adventure, 'The Arcade' was published. My newest novel, 'One Summer Vacation', a humorous story about a family's escapades over the Independence Day holiday, came out in June of 2024. These three novels are available now.
     I just want to keep writing stories that people connect with and enjoy. Creating music is still a passion as well. I currently live in Bogart, GA with my wife and two Dachshunds.
