About Kimberly Dyer
Author & Dreamer
I write science fiction, fantasy and romance stories that focus on emotional journeys and relationships (and dragons–always dragons).
As a former teacher, I absolutely love teaching writing and analyzing what makes a compelling story.
Outside of words, I love hiking with my dog, gardening, video games, and knitting. I currently live in Austin with my Golden Corgi, Hadley (isn’t she cute?!).
