Emma Jayne Taylor (of ejtbooks.com), has been an established author since 2008! Emma began writing to use her imagination productively, as she always had a quirky way of expressing this in cartoon drawing and bed-time stories, provided to her siblings when growing up.
Emma has a huge interest in health and fitness and began training in the Martial Arts at the age of ten, and continues with this today, teaching a style of Kickboxing whilst training in a mixed art!
Reflecting back, Emma remembers a time of bullying at school; and although she wasn't specifically looking to start training in the world of Martial Arts, it came to her through family friendship-connections as an interest. The entire family began to train together, building skills and confidence.
It was later realised that bullying didn't occur again and that a natural respect had built through her obvious abilities, coupled with other athletic achievements.
With Emma's writing skill and knowledge, coupled with her strong imagination - a book emerged, with an amazing combination of Martial Arts, Mystery and Superhero-Fantasy!
This is a must-read for anyone who enjoys epic fantasy, or young adult action and adventure books!
It has an anti-bullying theme, covered with excitement and adventure!
