    Joshua Jackson

    Joshua jackson was born and raised in the heart of the apalachian mountains. He was born handicapped, with several physical deformities including severed fingers on his right hand and scars around his ankles that prevented them from growing any larger than that of a small child. However, rather than use these as a crutch, he instead looked at these obstacles as oppurtunities to learn how to overcome the many problems and adversities that we all face in life.Which is why one of the main themes of this book is "What doesn't kill you, simply makes you stronger." Growing up with less financial means than most, he spent most of his childhood at home reading and diving head first into any fantasy novel he came across and the worlds of imagination they provided. Once grown, and having such authors as J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S.Lewis and in more modern times R.A. Salvatore as inpirations in the world of literature in his heart, he decided to try his own hand at being a writer, with "Legend of Mjornia" being his first attempt. Now very happily married with his beautiful wife Brittany supporting him as well as his friends and family, he hopes his stories will inpire future generations in the same way that he was inpired as a child the first time he first stumbled upon "The Hobbit" , which left him mesmerized by the world of fantasy, and has been ever since.
