T. L. Shreffler was born and raised in Burbank, CA. She grew up only a few blocks away from Warner Bros. and Disney studios. Inspired by such a creative community of friends, family and neighbors, she dedicated herself to her creative goals since her teen years. She has been writing The Cat's Eye Chronicles and other works since she was 12 years old. She moved to Washington State in 2020 and currently lives in Snohomish County with her family. She loves diversity, travel, and experiencing different cultures; she tries to evoke a similar sense of wonder at the unfamiliar in her readers. She holds a BA in Eloquence (English), and her poetry has been published in Eclipse: A Literary Journal and The Northridge Review. She is author of The Cat's Eye Chronicles (YA/Epic Fantasy) and The Dragon Pearl Series (Dragon-hunting Fantasy Adventure - currently undergoing revisions).
