Jade Kerrion, an award-winning author, got her start in fan fiction. She developed a loyal reader base with her fan fiction series based on the MMORPG Guild Wars. She was accused of keeping her readers up at night, distracting them from work, housework, homework, and (far worse), from actually playing Guild Wars. And then she wondered why just screw up the time management skills of gamers? Why not aspire to screw everyone else up too?
So here she is, writing books that aspire to keep you from doing anything else useful with your time.
She lives in Fort Lauderdale, Florida with her wonderfully supportive husband and her two young sons, Saint and Angel, (no, those aren't their real names, but they are like saints and angels, except when they're not.)

“When the Silence Ends” by Jade Kerrion takes place when genetic mutants have become feared in society. Seventeen year old twins, Dee and Dum, had been under the protection of the Mutant Affairs Council, but have gone out on their own, because Dum, a mutant with untrained empath powers, was not responding to the training there. Dee, who is human, refuses to believe Dum cannot be taught to control his powers. They only have each other, and Dee is fiercely protective of her brother, unable to speak since a terrible tragedy that occurred when they were only five. While Dee struggles to make a life for them, Dum spends his time listening to music on his iPod, deep into his own world. Thanks to determination and the help of others, Dee and Dum have a chance at a bright future, but they both must step up and take a giant leap into the unknown!
Dee is a great heroine, a bit of a smart-mouth, but very strong with a TON of ambition, able to dream and reach for the stars! Dum seemed almost slow, but as I was allowed glimpses into his mind, he became even more complex than Dee. Jessica, another mutant, was a breath of fresh air, dealing well with the burden of her abilities. Jade Kerrion has built a world that entertained me while making me think about the issues covered in her dystopian world: inequality, fear of those who are different, and learning to get along with others! Her creative style captured my imagination!
