Award Winning Author
S.A. Schneider
S.A. Schneider believes every great story starts with imagination—and maybe a wolf. (He has one. It helps.)
From epic Lego battles to action figure showdowns, he’s been building magical worlds since childhood. Now, he brings those worlds to life in adventurous middle grade fantasy books that spark creativity and curiosity.
When he’s not writing, he’s helping kids—and the grown-ups who guide them—discover the magic of storytelling. Whether it’s books, choose-your-own-adventure tales, or video game scripts, he’s on a mission to show that writing can be more than a hobby—it can be a lifelong journey.
Join him and Enjoy the Adventure!
