About the author


"You know how long it takes for a flower to bloom, just the wait of something or someone to become their full form? You want it to become exactly the way you've perceive it in your mind instead of how others sees it. In time, you'll finally realize and see them the way the rest of us portrays them, as a beautiful sight."

An artist, animator and storyteller, Jalen Caldwell was born and raised in Charlotte, North Carolina. Growing up, he loved creating his own characters through his comics all through his middle and high school years. He then began writing his own short stories as an animator in college with his unique wonderment style. Jalen believes that anyone can be a writer, everyone is just another dusty old book wanting to tell others their stories.
