    Explore worlds where time and space bend you to their will, where madness beckons, and reality is merely a suggestion. Journey through realms that make you question your beliefs and test your grip on sanity.

    Roland Byrd

    Roland is a Father, Husband, Network Engineer, Martial Artist, Skateboarder, Fitness Nut, and Student of Life. He fell in love with reading at an early age and devoured all the science fiction and fantasy books he could get his hands on. His love for reading led to a passion for writing. A self-proclaimed Science-Fiction and Fantasy Junkie, Roland never imagined his first 2 books would help Inspire, Motivate, Heal, or Explore Spirituality. It was a path he happily walked though. In 2012 Roland decided to revisit his passion for science fiction and fantasy writing. He now writes science fiction and fantasy stories and novels as well as self-help and transformational books. For his personal development books, Roland draws on his own life experiences and personal transformation to help other's discover how they too can live their passion and become their best selves. Like many people Roland came from a troubled past. After hitting the "absolute bottom of his life", he discovered how to break free of the patterns and programming he was living. This personal evolution ignited his desire to help others learn to change their lives by transforming themselves from the inside. Roland seeks first to entertain with his science fiction and fantasy writing. He also weaves subtle messages about personal transformation and enlightenment into his fiction works. "Your world is only as big as you allow it to be." - Roland Byrd
