Tyler Whitesides decided at the age of seven that he wanted to be an author. He is so grateful to be working with Erin Murphy Literary Agency in fulfilling this lifelong dream. He is the author of many middle grade fantasy books, including the Janitors series, The Wishmakers, and Magic’s Most Wanted. He also authored an epic fantasy series for adults, starting with The Thousand Deaths of Ardor Benn. Tyler travels the country, presenting at elementary schools to promote literacy and creativity. When he’s not writing, you might find him backstage building sets and props for local theatre companies, on stage performing in musicals, or standing knee deep in a cold mountain stream to fly fish. Tyler lives in northern Utah with his two sons.
Open to work for hire and IP work in chapter books, middle grade, and young adult. Special interest in fantasy and world-building.
