About Alteran

Adam R. Singletary was born in Avon Park, Florida. An only child he was often left to his own imagination and a fleet of action figures to act out any scene he could think of. This kind of entertainment continued for the majority of his young life and into young adulthood.

It can be said that a lot of his inspiration and drive for writing came from those many adventures he had in his room. Coupled with a love for fantasy and science fiction; he would read countless books. Some from his grandparent's house, others from the school library.

Probably the biggest influence on his writing is the works of J.K. Rowling. Reading the Harry Potter Series gave Adam the drive to want to write. It was at the age of sixteen that he started his first novel. It was complete garbage after it was done, but to a sixteen year old it was pretty amazing.

Since Then he's been refining the story to his first published work, Elder's Secret. Along with that is a number of short stories and other random notes on the universe he's set his story in.

Adam is currently finishing his Bachelors in Creative Writing while continuing to work on his Novel Series, The Order of Atlantis.

"The trouble with Borrowing another mind was, you always felt out of place when you got back to your own body, and Granny was the first person ever to read the mind of a building. Now she was feeling big and gritty and full of passages. 'Are you all right?' Granny nodded, and opened her windows. She extended her east and west wings and tried to concentrate on the tiny cup held in her pillars."
— Terry Pratchett, Discworld: Equal Rites
