Full Bio
From the time he was in elementary school writing Pokemon fan fiction and stories about dinosaurs, Kevin Garone wanted to be an author. But of course, it takes time before the dream of writing and publishing one’s own books becomes a reality.
Some of Kevin’s past adventures include youth soccer referee, serving a 2-year mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, doing deliveries and cleanup for a port-a-potty company, and playing and singing in an alternative/folk band and a satirical hip hop group.
After graduating college and trying (and failing) to write fantasy, Kevin finally discovered his passion for writing middle grade sci-fi and horror. Drawing inspiration from his favorites like the Universal Classic Monster movies, B-movies from the 1950s and 60s, Stranger Things, and more, Kevin writes stories that combine horror and adventure as kids face their fears and overcome the odds to save the day.
