<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">Born in <st1:place><st1:city>Elyria</st1:city>,
<st1:state>Ohio</st1:state></st1:place> in the Spring of 1970, an only child,
R.M.J. Hooper spent his life being influenced by great stories, whether it was
science fiction and fantasy novels, superheroes in comics, or the great
adventures of his favorite film heroes. </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">Drawing from the age of three, he
always drifted toward the creative and imaginative. He greatly contributed to
his middle school yearbook, involved himself in art classes, creative writing,
and Drama Club in High School. </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">Inspired by a visit to <st1:city><st1:place>London</st1:place></st1:city>'s
rich tapestry of history, parks, soaring architecture, and friendly people, he
spent the next four years developing the history and characters that inhabit
the world of Crescent Grey. </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">Spitfire's Grave is the first
part in Book One of an intricately planned epic series about the girl
Crescent Grey, her friends and their adventures. </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">Crescent Grey loved adventure, and
found it in the pages of books, but in the real world life wasn’t always so
great. </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">Orphaned before her first birthday
she grew up in the most miserable place imaginable and stranger still, it also
just happened to bear her name. </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">But Crescent Grey Orphanage was no
ordinary orphanage. An ancient, dark place with a long history of being haunted
and other kinds of weird happenings — a gruesome graveyard, old scary
paintings, hidden passageways and odd teachers suspiciously traipsing about at
all hours of the night. Everyone seems to have a secret here — including
Crescent herself. </p>
