C.R. Kwiat attended New Mexico State University and Arizona State University, focusing on Biology, Chemistry, and Secondary Education. She has been writing stories since the beginning of time (3rd grade for her), and it is the one pleasure she hasn't had to give up due to children and an unavoidable aging process. Currently she is teaching high school science in Nacogdoches, TX, completing her 18th year teaching. She has self-published twelve novels in hopes of supporting her 'send-her-kids-to-college' dream and her 'get-rid-of-the-stupid-96-Jeep-for-a-car-that's-not-embarrassing' dream. The first dream is in progress, the second one...hopefully soon.
