About Ileandra Young

I'm a thirty-*mumbles* year old (purple loving, cheese worshipping) author of fantasy, juggling a pair of beautiful twin boys with my burning desire to make up stories and write them all down. When I get the chance, I play games, listen to music, and in days long past I even ran a radio show. Though I occasionally write non-fiction, my heart lives in fantasy and my debut novel, Silk Over Razor Blades is now available through Amazon along with part two of the trilogy, Walking The Razor's Edge.

A Writer’s Biggest Fear

I’ve been having a little debate about that. All by myself, mind you, so to say ‘debate’ is probably a bit misleading. I guess you can debate with yourself, right? Meh. Well I do. I’ve been trying to decide what … Continue reading →

Progress is good!

Posted on October 18, 2010 by Ileandra Young
