ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Inghild Økland loves to read. Fantasy has kept a special place in her heart ever since she was only 7 years old, snuggling up to her father and sister as he read Lord of the Rings to them.
Now a soil scientist by day, writer by night, Inghild enjoys her days with her fiancé and their cute, wonderful baby son. Of course, her son has been properly introduced to fantasy as well, starting with Never Touch a Dragon.
Balance is her first book, a romantic fantasy stemming from a strange, life-like dream and countless hours enjoying anime. As the story grew, it felt like a jigsaw puzzle falling into place as she found missing pieces she didn't even knew existed, but which linked to the story as naturally as if they had always been there.
Inghild still enjoys a steady diet of reading, especially heart-pounding, romantic fantasy, but has added ten cups of tea and the feeling of a keyboard beneath her fingers to the daily consummation.
Nothing motivates her as much as honest feedback, and it is her hope to create stories that people will love as she loves her childhood books.
