About me

Gender Male
Occupation Author
Location Holly Springs, NC, United States
Introduction My name is Scott Niven and I'm the author of three speculative fiction (science fiction/fantasy) books: TWILIGHT CANDLEFLIES, SUNSET LAVAFLIES, and MIDNIGHT FIREFLIES. I've been writing in one form or another for over 25 years. My short stories have appeared in various publications, including the literary journal Pembroke Magazine. I was also a finalist in the prestigious L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future Contest. When I'm not writing or spending time with my son, I enjoy snapping forgettable photos, running through my neighborhood, and hopping on airplanes. I've visited 40 states, 16 national parks, and sadly, only 3 foreign countries. When I grow up, I hope to become an astronaut. If that doesn't work out, my fallback dream is to make a living writing.
