About the Author
A.A. Leil (born Amr Abouelleil) is an Egyptian-American author of speculative and contemporary fiction. His work often explores the intersection of East and West, waiting to see what happens when – at the same time – all the lights turn green. He began writing, like most hormonal teenagers do, to impress a girl. The girl wasn’t very impressed, but his high school English teachers were, and awarded him a certificate. He then abandoned writing for the next two decades, succumbing to the notion that one’s life should be devoted to the pursuit of a good, steady job to pay the bills and support a family regardless of whether one loves that job or not.
