Dave Connis

I write words you can sing and words you can read. I live in Chattanooga, TN with my wife, Clara and four kiddos. When I'm not writing YA or MG, I'm doing other things that actually give my family the ability to eat food. I'm a member the Jedi Counsel, and I have a propensity to daydream whenever I attempt to be an adult. Four truths and one lie: 1. I once built a raft with friends and rafted down a river for a week 2. The first story I wrote was autobiographical X-Men fan fiction which culminated with me kissing Rogue, naturally. 3. If alligator or goat is on a restaurant/cafe menu I will order it. 4. I tried out to be a drummer for the Blue Man Group when I was 16. 5. I camped on the shore of the frozen Canadian wasteland of Hudson Bay in -32 degree weather.
