Payton Todd has been writing short stories all her life, but the Amnesia Project is her first novel. The original draft of the novel was written when she was fifteen years old, after winning Wood Dragon Books’ Young Author Competition. She lives in Wood Mountain, Saskatchewan, Canada with her parents, sister, brother and dog on a cattle ranch. When she’s not writing, she spends her time shooting archery competitively, playing volleyball, and learning new songs on her guitar.
