Kylie Day
Kylie Day is a lover of books and stories, an avid reader, and a passionate writer. Last time she counted the books in her bookshelves, she had over five hundred of them (the digital library was too extensive to count). While physical books feel magical in her hands — and smell even more magical — she prefers to buy ebooks because she doesn’t have any room for more bookshelves. If she had the money she would buy a library, just to fill it with amazing books.Her love for books is why she, as of the spring of 2015, has a BA in literature. She could never see her life progressing in any other way since that first time she picked up a book and read it with fervor as well as stuck her nose in it just to smell the magic on the pages.Now Kylie is chasing her childhood dream of becoming an author. The Busy Author’s Guide-series is a series of short ebooks that is meant to help others with the same dream.
