About the author

David Hasty

David Hasty is the author of The Shadows Saga. A high school science teacher for over 15 years, he lives by the belief that curiosity, empathy, and a quiet sense of a larger design shape every story worth telling.

David Hasty was born on September 15, 1971, in Ahoskie, North Carolina. He has always been drawn to the mysteries of life, both seen and unseen. A lifelong learner and natural storyteller, he has built a career that bridges science, humanity, and quiet spirituality. A graduate of North Carolina State University, he later earned his Master's degree in Education Administration from East Carolina University. For over 15 years, he has served as a high school science teacher, where his passion for discovery, curiosity, and connection has inspired countless students. Before his time in education, he worked in 911 emergency services and as a Quality Control Chemist, roles that gave him a unique understanding of people, precision, and the delicate balance between chaos and order. Outside the classroom, David is a proud father of three: Jenna, his oldest daughter; Alex, his middle son; and Hannah, his youngest. Writing has always been his creative refuge: a comfort found in books and storytelling since his earliest years. Today, his fiction reflects the same curiosity and wonder that have defined his life: a blend of imagination, empathy, and a subtle spiritual awareness that guides his characters and themes.
