Raised on the mean streets and back lots of Hollywood by a Yoda-look-alike grandfather, award-winning author, Ash Mancy, doesn’t conform, doesn’t fit in, is epic awkward, and lives to perfect a deep-seated oppositional defiance disorder. In a constant state of fascination with the trivial, Ash contemplates such weighty questions as If time and space are curved, then where do all the straight people come from? When not writing, Ash can be found taming waves on western shores, pondering the nutritional value of sunsets, appreciating the much maligned dandelion, unhooking guide ropes from stanchions, and marveling at all things ordinary.
Ash lives, most of the time, on the West Coast of the United States. Ash writes science fiction, mystery/suspense, adult fantasy, and adult romance. You can also read Ash’s award-winning Young Adult novels at C. Kennedy. Writing as C. Kennedy, Omorphi was a runner up in the 2014 Rainbow Awards for Best LGBT Young Adult Fiction and Slaying Isidore's Dragons was a finalist in the 2015 Rainbow Awards for Best LGBT Young Adult Fiction.
