Sathya Achia

Sathya Achia is an Indian American/Canadian writer who creates stories of adventure and discovery for picture books, middle grade, and young adult readers.

Sathya’s creative work is influenced by her South Indian Kodava culture. She grew up spending summers in the remote hills and enchanting jungles of the Western Ghats in India, where she learned the art of storytelling from her grandparents. As a young reader, she missed seeing heroes like herself—of two worlds and cultures—so she enjoys writing stories inspired by her East meets West roots, mythology and folklore, and the natural world.

Sathya is an active member of the Society for Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI), the Author’s Guild, and the 12×12 Picture Book Challenge.

By day, Sathya is an award-winning communications professional who currently serves as an editor with a leading medical publisher, pairing her curiosity for understanding what makes the world tick with a love for communicating across print and online formats. When not spinning stories, Sathya can be found trying a new yoga pose, exploring the great outdoors, feasting on gourmet popcorn, or wrapped up in her greatest adventure of all: Motherhood.

D.B. Carter

D B Carter lives with his wife on the edge of a small town nestled amongst the rolling hills of rural Devon, England.

The son of two nomadic artists, he grew up in a world of creativity, studying painting techniques under his parents’ tutelage. In his 20s, he went to university and followed a career in science and later commerce, running his own business for twenty years.

A lifelong bibliophile, he is firmly of the opinion that there is no such thing as too many books, only insufficient shelf space. It was his love of classical literature, of Dickens, Brontë and Conan Doyle, which inspired him to become a writer.

His philosophy is, “If we look for the good, we will find it.
