About the Author
DJ Jameson Smith is a parent, a writer, an artist, and a Christian. She is a writer by nature. She is a weaver of words. She thinks in word groupings, lines, paragraphs and pages that flip in her mind, back and forth, being edited constantly. Everything she sees elicits an idea. All her writings have a storyteller-esque feel to them. Many of these ideas go into Creationsbydjamesonsmith.com/blog and her personalized storybooks, but a large part of her 'thinking' has gone into the creation of "Secrets Beyond Scymaria", which is an exciting, fast-paced science-fiction fantasy series geared for 'tweeners' and up. It fully engages her readers' imagination while allowing their minds to wrap around some moral issues inside of her stories. Her writings are thought-provoking, fun adventures for all. When not thinking of words, Smith tries to convert all that she sees into visual art at home and at Open Ground Studios in Seaside, California. As a photographer and artist, she creates, via a photopolymer process, etched plates, and then using various mediums, she manipulates and creates artistic prints of her photographs.
