My Story
Z.W. Guard
Within the captivating pages of the Devil's Crown series lies the culmination of a long and rewarding journey that has brought me here, ready to share a world of adventure and imagination with you.
I began my humble journey as a college football equipment manager at Mississippi State, fully embracing my love for the game. Wanting more, I pursued my dream of becoming an NFL Scout, and I was blessed to work for the Atlanta Falcons, Minnesota Vikings, and the Chicago Bears. My new NFL career was just getting started, yet, I returned home to settle down in the Cincinnati area near my family.
Best decision of my life. Soon after, I met my wife, Shannon, who was the one that encouraged me to write again. Four years and one-thousand whiskeys later, I am proud to present the first book in the Devil's Crown series!
​
I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did writing it!
​
Second one is underway!
