Ever since he was young, M. Haynes has had a love of all things "geeky". From Power Rangers to Dragon Ball Z, his childhood was so filled with fantasy worlds that he decided to create one of his own. His original books and stories have evolved and been adapted to the works he publishes today; ones that feature the one thing that was missing from his childhood fantasy worlds: people that looked and acted like him and those he knew. Armed with a few degrees (including a BA from Alcorn State University) and over fifteen years of writing experience, M. Haynes has set out to produce works that show that you don't have to be be blonde haired and blue eyed to be a superhero, nor do you have to even be all the way "good". He seeks to bring different experiences to the fantasy genre, and this is reflected in his ever popular "Elemental" series. M. Haynes hopes that his works will show a more nuanced version of people of color in a fantasy world, and maybe even encourage children of color to learn the value of reading.
