A.S. Drayton rediscovered his love for writing and weaving tales while working on his award-winning memoir Are You Okay? The Carryover of Kindness. What began in 2019 as a one-off project, dedicated to his future children, grew into something more. Through the process, A.S. found his passion, and with the collaboration of his talented friends, A.S. Drayton left his days working in the pathology lab behind, trading his pipette for a pen. And his first official project after such a shakeup? That would be A.S. Drayton's first fiction title and the new genre-defying thriller, Through the Eyes of The Beholder. As an author of both fiction and nonfiction, A.S. wishes to promote personal growth through stories that foster a mindset of both introspection and the expansion of one's horizons.
