L. Darby Gibbs

L. Darby Gibbs (a.k.a. Elldee) was born on the east coast but has lived about an equal amount of time on both coasts as she is just as likely to pronounce “route” to rhyme with “root” as often as rhyme with “rout.” This dichotomy of accents catches the ear of her students on a regular basis as she is a teacher of English and creative writing at the high school level. Gibbs writes science fiction mainly but is known to thrash out a contemporary poem or short story on occasion as well. She lives with her husband a practical inventor, an adventurous daughter who doubles as her first reader and two dogs in a 1920s house that interrupts her writing routinely as it is always in need of remodeling. Gibbs has two series totaling eight books along with a non-fiction writer’s reference currently published in eBook format at most eBook retail sites. She has been published since July of 2011 and is currently working on the fifth book in her time travel series Students of Jump.
