About The
Author:
CRYSTAL HICKERSON, born in Jamaica Queens, NY has traveled all over the world. She is a gifted writer who has the extreme talent of bringing passionate characters to life. This dynamic author has been writing most of her life starting out as a young girl writing short stories with friends. Unlike her childhood friends she found it hard to limit the story to only a couple of pages and wanted to continue breathing life into her characters. As she grew writing stayed a major part of her life.
After earning a degree in Sociology and working in the field of grief
counseling she picked up the pen again but this time to write for real.
During a six month period between jobs, she made use of her time by
writing everyday and penning her first body of work. Although that
first novel was never published it led the way for her to sharpen her
craft and in 2005 she wrote and self published her 2nd body of work and
1st published novel, The Magician, a supernatural tale about a
young man performing as an illusionist who ushered in a new dawning for
all mankind. Crystal followed up this novel with a gritty tale in 2007
titled Street Corners. This novel was born as
a machinima-animated movie. The outcry of fans of the short serial
prompted her to turn the short animated film into a novel. As a machinima
director she has produced over 10 short and full length pictures. Today
she is the owner of Lillie Mae Publishing, Trinity
Productions, and has written her third supernatural thriller, Wanted.
Crystal Hickerson received her
bachelors degree in Sociology from Austin Peay State University in
Clarksville Tennessee and has worked in social work, grief support, and
hospice for over 10 years. She resides with her children in southeastern
Michigan.
