About the Author

David Decker has always had an active imagination and a love of drawing fantasy and science fiction. He has also been a fan of anime for as long as he can remember.

Kyra of the North is his first novel and a testament to his belief that with hard work and perseverance, anything is possible. During the early years of David’s education, it became evident that he was struggling with reading and writing and was not progressing alongside his classmates. After being tested, he was classified with a learning disability, which affected how he comprehended and understood the structure of words when reading or writing. With the support of his family and educators, David was enrolled in special programs and classes to help him adapt and develop tools that would support him throughout his life.

David obtained a BA in Graphic Arts from Western Connecticut State University and later an MS in Interactive Communication from Quinnipiac University.

David is a member of CAPA (Connecticut Author and Publisher Association), Connecticut Book Festivals, Nutmeg Lit Fest, and is a member of the Fantasy Author Legion.
