A.J. Norfield lives with his loving family on land but below sea level. He tries not to worry too much about climate change and the melting of the polar ice caps. His wife and two rascals of children keep him engaged and grounded in life while he pursues goals of publishing a story that has been stuck in his head for years.

As a longtime forest and mountain enthusiast, he often wonders about his flat surroundings and how to escape them. In his free time, if available at all, he enjoys a wide variety of gaming, reading/writing, drawing and socializing. His interest in (dragon-fantasy) novels has followed him throughout his life ever since he was young enough to read. It was this interest--with a number of broken nights thanks to his daughter's sleeping schedule--that eventually lead to his current undertaking to write his own dragon-fantasy series 'The Stone War Chronicles' and put it out into the world.

Inspired by established names like Anne McCaffrey, Terry Goodkind and Naomi Novik--to name only a few of many--he is ready to show the world what he has to offer.
