Kester James Finley is an author of paranormal and supernatural urban fantasy books. His work includes "The Keeper Chronicles" series and a fantasy superhero novella series titled, "The AOA".

Living in Florida, Kester grew up in the backwoods of Zephyrhills. The country life with its slower pace, and its mix of colorful characters eager to share, inspired him to write.

Fascinated by the supernatural, he has spent time studying the paranormal and its history while enjoying the world of superheroes and magic. He is a proud geek, a lover of comics, a horror-film junkie, and a damn good role player.

He currently resides in Spring Hill whiling away the hours writing, trying to figure out what he wants to be when he grows up, what to have for dinner

Growing up, I loved comics and anything relating to superheroes and "teams" where everyone contributed something to the overall plot or situation. I also grew up loving fantasy, magic, and the supernatural.

Getting back on track.

Let’s face it, life gets in the way sometimes. The feeling of not being able to catch up can stick with you.

I never imagined writer’s block would find its unnerving form to my doorstep, but it did. Life got crazy
