T. S. Littlefield (author)

Author of the young adult, science fiction series 'Jet Black'.

BiAbout the Author: 
On Wednesday September 8 1966, NBC aired the first episode of Star Trek, and T.S. Littlefield was only thirteen days old. Unlike Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain) who "came in with Halley's Comet," and predicted he would "go out with it," (which he did!) T.S. Littlefield loves the fact that he "came in with Stark Trek," but makes no such claims as to going out with it, whenever that may be, and is always happily surprised to see a new Star Trek movie hit the box office. 
His parents divorced when he was three years old, dragging him through one custody battle after another. These turbulent beginnings prompted him to start using his imagination to create his own realities within himself. He created various fantasy worlds where his parents didn't hate one another or use him as a weapon in an ongoing custody conflict that ended up lasting over ten years.
At the age of ten, His mother picked him up for her scheduled visitation and the next thing he knew, he was sitting in a first class seat on a flight to Seattle Washington. "She was kidnapping me!" He said, "But I didn't care, I was glad to be with my mom. I remember her laying a book in my lap."
The book his mother gave him, was Jonathan Livingston Seagull, by Richard Bach. This amazing story of adventure and spirituality had a profound effect on his young life and helped to shape the way he viewed the world around him. 
He still loved science fiction however, and like most kids his age, he read all the comic books he could get his hands on. He also loved the work of Rod Serling and never missed an episode of The Twilight Zone.
Fast forward to the nineties in which he married his sweetheart Rachel, and started working as a heavy equipment operator. "Not long after that is when my imagination started running away with me," he said, "and I began thinking up stories. When you're on a piece of heavy equipment for hours on end every day, alone with your thoughts, your mind naturally starts to wander. I was already quite the daydreamer anyway."
It was mid-2013 and he was now a father of four wonderful children when he finally decided to start writing the story of Jethro Black. "I was just going to write it all as one book and call it Jet Black, but soon it became apparent that this story would be better told in a series, so my wife came up with the name Nebulous for the first book and I loved it!" 
Nebulous was published in November of 2014, and the second book in the series 'Insidious' has also been published as T.S. Littlefield works on the third book in the Jet Black Series; Rapturous.
