About Shireling

About the author:
Mr. A. Shireling was born and raised in the Shire of the American Midwest. Homeschooled all twelve grades, Shireling grew up reading books at an insane rate. He favored fantasy and historical fiction but read everything else as well, including nutrition facts on groceries and most of an encyclopedia set. At age ten, he was introduced to the Lord of the Rings series and it changed his life, filling his mind with visions of strange distant lands he tries to describe to this day.

Remember when dad's shoulders were the highest place on earth and your mom was your hero? Race issues were about who ran the fastest, war was only a car game. The most pain you felt was when you skinned your knees, and good byes only meant tomorrow? And we couldn't wait to grow up.
