Who Is A. Jarrell Hayes?

Award-winning poet & novelist A. Jarrell Hayes was born in 1982 in Baltimore, MD. He was raised in the suburbs of Columbia, MD. His love of reading started at an early age, as he read books from his older brothers in an attempt to emulate them. The computer games Writer Rabbit and Reader Rabbit pushed him to pursue writing. His first written books were handwritten and self-illustrated tales in the vein of Choose Your Own Adventure books.

Now A. Jarrell Hayes writes poetry and mainly fantasy fiction. In his spare time he designs and sells hats, shirts, buttons, and other products for poets and authors on Zazzle.com.
