W. Jefferson Smith wrote his first book, The Aliens Come to Earth, in the second grade. Only a single copy was printed and bound, but he’s been writing ever since. After high school, he worked in Alaska, earned flying hours toward his pilot’s license, and traveled around Europe, all the while plotting story and character. Later, he decided he needed a formal creative writing education. Will is a recent graduate from Utah Valley University. He strives to create flawed characters that readers will learn to love as they evolve. Will has written three novel-length unpublished manuscripts and one short story.
