Tyler lives in North Carolina with his wife, a couple of rescued pups, a cat, and feral children.

Before starting down the road to writing fantasy fiction, Tyler acquired a bachelor’s in religious studies at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. But with this wealth of knowledge came the unfortunate burden of a large amount of student loans. Since thousands in debt is not the easiest to pay off, he went back to school and got a bachelorette in nursing. And more debt.

At least he can afford the payments now.
