Grant Elliot SmithGrant Elliot Smith loved to read from an early age. Saving up his allowance, he spent it all at the local bookstore buying up as much as he could from the fantasy section. His first interest was poetry, which he wrote voraciously. Soe of his early work from as far back as the 1980's can be found in various poetry anthologies. Completing four university degrees, including a Masters in Sociology from the University of Essex in Colchester, England, Grant has lived and worked around the world, spending a number of those years in Japan. The sights and sounds from the various cultures he has seen help to fuel his imagination for writing. When not working or traveling, he loves to escape in the world of fantasy and the paranormal.
