T. J. Akers wants to be a multi-millionaire when he grows up and give his wealth away to help his favorite causes—churches, schools, and animal shelters. Since the millions have been slow in coming, he’s had to settle for working at a state university as a computer technician, volunteering at church and his local animal shelter. Oh, and writing stories to entertain people, especially younger readers.
His short story, Necessary Evil, has been published in the science fiction anthology No Revolution Too Big, (Helping Hands Press, April 2014). Another short story Elfanticide, appeared in the anthology Tides of Impossibility (Skipjack Press, April 2015).
He holds a Master of English degree from Minnesota State University, Mankato, and can often be found roaming the library on his breaks, especially in the children’s and young adult sections.
He lives with his beloved wife of thirty years, his dog, and two cats.
