Candy Atkins is a full-time writer who lives with her husband and two kids in Orlando, Florida. She's an avid reader and lover of all things fantasy and sci-fi. Her debut novel, The Lost Knight, is volume one of the six-part Lost Knight Series.

Her life's journey has taken her from dining with the President to being on food stamps to running her own company. And since all author bios end by naming and quantifying pets…she also enjoys spending time with her boxer, Butler, and Wynona the cat.

It took me six years to write The Lost Knight Series. If I wasn’t inspired I didn't write. Taking a week off wasn't unusual and I've stayed away as long as six months.
I plotted in my head, developed characters and jotted down notes, but if I didn't feel like writing I didn't write. I believe that many times forced writing seems…forced.
