J.S. Chancellor, whose personal motto is, "woe is the writer who mounts
their merit on the masses," started writing stories when she was still
in grade school, and finished her first fantasy novella at the age of
fourteen. She drafted chapter one of the Guardians of Legend trilogy
when she was a freshman in high school, sitting on a stool in front of a piano bench, in her parents' den. It wasn't until she was twenty-five,
when a resident at the apartment complex where she worked lovingly made a casual remark about her procrastination, that her passion for fantasy
fiction took center stage. Since then she's focused all of her efforts
on writing, including leaving her full-time job in September 2009 and
actively maintaining a blog dedicated to the art of crafting fiction
(welcometotheasylum.net).
