D.K.R. Boyd is an award-winning Canadian author and former educator at Appleby College in Oakville, Ontario, where he was awarded the Prime Minister of Canada’s Excellence in Teaching Award for his work in the development of e-courses for creative writing. As David Boyd, he has published more than 25 books for children, young adults, and adults and also under the pseudonym David Collins (The Grief Team). The second book in his critically acclaimed trilogy for young adults, Bottom Drawer, was nominated for the Governor General’s Award for Children’s Text 1996. 

    Raised and educated in St. Stephen, New Brunswick, and a graduate of Mount Allison University, Boyd returned to St. Stephen after retiring from Appleby College in order to create The Reflecting Man series, which he began in January 2007. With three volumes now in publication, there are, Boyd says, “…only two remaining.”
