Veronica R. Tabares is a writer by day and by night. From novels and

screenplays to picture books, she is known for her witty style that effortlessly elicits

laughs but never blushes. Growing up in Memphis, Tennessee, she realized she

wanted to become a storyteller the moment she read her first few words.

Throughout her creative journey, Veronica has earned extensive acclaim for her

work. Her book, Gray Zone, won Bronze in the Feathered Quill Book Awards’

Juvenile/YA category and a number of her screenplays were finalists in various

prominent contests. To date, she has a grand total of ten books in print (and

counting), including three sci-fi novels, three fantasy novels, one YA contemporary

novel, and three picture books.

Veronica holds a Master of Fine Arts degree in Creative Writing from Full Sail

University and a Master of Library and Information Science degree from the

University of Washington. She also received a Bachelor of Arts degree in

Anthropology.

While she’s a southern girl at heart, Veronica R. Tabares currently writes and

resides with her wonderful family in Seattle, Washington. When she isn’t crafting

fantastic stories, she spends the bulk of her time thinking about the cosmos, time

travel, archaeology, and everything in between.
