Greetings!

Hello! I am Bjorn Leesson.  I was born in the low country of South Carolina a long, long time ago.  I have worked in manufacturing most of my life in order to feed myself, but I’ve nourished my mind with the study of many topics — such as history of all eras, the paranormal, astronomy, various types of writing, photography, archeology, genealogy, vexillology, some other -ologies, and even stock car racing for a couple of years. I find just about everything fascinating in some way and have been accused of being too easily entertained. 

A blend of a few of these interests led to the creation of the Thalsparr Universe.  The first six installments of the series are available now with more coming. 

I currently live in the Midlands of South Carolina with my wife of 25 years on our hobby farm.

I occasionally also play World of Warcraft on the Azshara realm with characters "Dokkrsdottir" (Alliance) and "Ingryd" (Horde).

Maybe we'll run into each other!

Special Thanks

Andria Flores is an awesome editor!  It isn't possible for me to recommend her enough.  She has edited and offered valuable advice on all of the books in the Outside the Thalsparr series.

Marketing is just as important (if not more so) to the publishing process than the writing. Aimee Ravichandran at Abundantly Social is the lady to help you maneuver through it all.

Don't know how to get that press coverage that you want to generate interest in your work? I didn’t either.  Thankfully, Mickey Mikkelson at Creative Edge Publicity has all the know-how.
