C. K. O’Donnell is a poet, writer, and author of the young/new adult speculative suspense series, The Port Allegiance Chronicles. She was born in Berkeley, California, where she acquired her Bohemian spirit for writing. When she’s not immersed in words or turning thrift store junk into treasures, you’ll find her camping, hiking, or riding her vintage-style bicycle down the idyllic country roads of North Idaho, where she lives today with her husband and two rescue cats, Tiggy and Tiba.
