Steve T. Alford is a blessed father to one wonderful princess. His creativity has produced many poems and short stories over the years, but its most important contribution came in the form of the bedtime stories that he crafted each night for his daughter. With the passing of his grandfather, he realized how fleeting life can be, so he decided to share his stories with the world. Using the skills grafted into him by his many excellent English teachers, he aims to create stories that will captivate his readers and whisk them away from the dystopian world they live in. Without the support of his family, friends, teachers, and fellow authors that became mentors, this book would have never been published. He is forever grateful for those who have supported him and pushed him towards the goal.
