Terra Hicks grew up in California. Her family owned a comic book shop in the Bay Area that she spent the majority of her childhood in, immersed in bizarre art and people. This piqued her interest in storytelling and the arts. She attended art school in San Francisco and loves everything that exists behind the lens. When she is not reading and telling stories, she is taking pictures for her wedding photography company in Hawaii. She currently lives an off-grid lifestyle in a rainforest by the ocean on Big Island with her husband, goats, chickens, dog, cats, lizards, and two awesome sons.
