Tom at Wind&Sea Beach, La Jolla, CA. where he was a lifeguard in college. Andy King Photography
Tom grew up on the beaches of Southern California, where his GAMADIN saga begins. While in college, he was a lifeguard in La Jolla, California. Tom is an avid swimmer, skier, world traveler and artist. All of the artwork you see on the GAMADIN website is his, including
the cover and interior art for his novels. The GAMADIN book series evolved from Tom’s love of science fiction and the desire to write a thrill-packed, character driven adventure for young adults. Tom moved from the beaches of San Diego to the trees of Oregon in 2012. He still speaks to classrooms, writers groups, and book clubs all over the country about writing. You will find Tom hosting the Gamadin booth at many science fiction conventions and book fairs.
