Jared Bennett was born to rural Michigan and has barely left there. Being a nerd most of his life, he spent his formative years playing video games and LARP'ing with his friends. While the casual observer may have laughed at their exploits, Jared took note of the stories they came up with and vowed to one day set them to paper.
To fully qualify his nerd-dom, Jared met his wife while playing World of Warcraft and since their marriage he has helped to spawn two future nerds to help fill the ranks.
His first novel, Arcana's Avatar, was started when he was sixteen in the back of his Government class. His friend and future editor, Michael Adams, laid the groundwork for the endeavor and since then has been an active participant in its growth.
Though it took sixteen more years to finally call the book done, Jared hopes that this first foray into published work will lead to many more, and hopefully in a lot shorter time frame. The second book in the series, Fire's Avatar, will journey further into the realm of the Arcana and continue to follow the adventure started in Arcana's Avatar.
