Title
Alston, B.B.
Description
Barnes and Nobles Overall Kids and YA Book award winner, Alston has been writing fantasy and even horror stories since middle school. After years of rejection from many publishers, he enrolled in a biomedical science program. Through Twitter and with the help of DVPit, Alston's pitch was accepted and his career as an author began. With support from his wife and his love for writing, he proudly tells underrepresented writers to not give up and to get their stories out there.
