Plum Parrot

Plum Parrot, the pen name of Miles Gallup, was raised amidst the sun-drenched expanses of Southern Arizona, where the vast Sonoran Desert shaped his childhood. There, with a big imagination and a love for adventure, he spent his days crafting worlds of his own, hunting imaginary monsters and constructing forts in the wild terrain. These early experiences laid the foundation for the storytelling that would define his literary voice.
After studying creative writing at the University of Arizona, Plum took a detour into teaching, guiding young minds to discover the magic in books. But even as he imparted the art of writing to middle schoolers, his own creative spark never dimmed. Whether he was out on long walks with his Airedale terrier or diving into epic Dungeons & Dragons campaigns with friends and family, the pull of writing remained a constant companion.
