CR HIATT

CR HIATT is a writer of screenplays and an author of YA action-mystery novels. The daughter of a military veteran, CR grew up in a small town where she became an All-American athlete. CR knew early on that she wasn't cut out for the nine to five type of job - her tendency to day dream about adventures often got in the way. But, being the daughter of a Navy Veteran she also knew one had to do what was necessary to be secure, so she disciplined herself to push those dreams aside and settled on working in the entertainment legal field. When those dreams invaded her world once again, CR finally gave in and set out to write her own adventures. What the heck, right. If you can't live 'em, you might as well write about them.

The journey started after CR interviewed big city detectives about their lives on the job which resulted in her first YA series: McSwain & Beck, a series of fiction novels based on real-life events. The crimes themselves may not surprise you, but some of the perpetrators involved with the crimes would astonish you. Again, the books are works of fiction, only based on real life events, but you can't help but wonder while reading the books, which parts are, in fact, true.

When CR isn't writing, she enjoys renovating houses, spending time outdoors, catching up on her favorite books and TV shows, and most importantly, spending time at the campfires with her family and friends.
