About the Author
Richard E. Buckner is a lifelong Mississippi resident. He is the father of three beautiful daughters, who he must introduce here. His eldest is co-author, Suelynn N. Parker, who resides in Rathdrum, Idaho. His middle daughter is Starlynn, and his youngest is Shaelynn. And, he had better not forget his grandson, Elan, a.k.a. Elique (pictured here), and his granddaughter, Evangelia.
Richard found his passion for writing later in life, while his daughter Suelynn found hers early. Over the course of many years, Richard found himself writing short stories and poetry, mostly for fun. Then, one day, his fingers started typing and did not stop. Though it was not the story you are about to read, it is what led up to it. When he created Aryana, he knew he had created an almost perfect tale for young readers. What he needed to finish it off was a younger mind with a similar imagination, and who could have been better suited for this role than his own daughter, Sue?
