Meet Shelley!

Shelley D. Hiers is a fantasy author that likes to spin tales of adventure that never tarnish with age. A lifelong resident of Oklahoma, Shelley grew up in Tulsa with her wonderful family. She is an alumnus of the University of Oklahoma and University of Central Oklahoma, where she received a B.S degree in Microbiology, a minor degree in Chemistry, and a M.S. degree in Forensic Science.

During the day she makes her way in the world as a Microbiologist whose focus is developing anti-microbial strategies in order to prevent tooth decay. She has many published peer-reviewed scientific papers and hopes that one day her research can pave the way for accessible and affordable dental care.  By night, all of the technical jargon is cast aside as she dives head first into the creative pool of her mind and pulls out characters that live tales of wonder and whimsy.

Never one to do things by half measures, in her free time she has spent years mastering the art of soap making, and now runs a small business selling artisan crafted goat milk soap and other bath and beauty products. Currently she resides in Oklahoma City with her amazing and supportive husband and their adopted herd of two cats, and two dogs.

Her debut book, Her Purpose, is scheduled to come out in winter 2021!
