Aaron Singleton Smith
Aaron Singleton Smith (22 years of age), is a young English author from Surrey. Born in 1986, Aaron enjoyed writing and storytelling from a young age, which acted as an outlet for his vivid imagination. Educated to secondary level at Gordons School in Lightwater; Aaron was encouraged by his teachers to follow his passion and after the completion of his A-Levels at Godalming College in 2005, he turned his mind to a science fiction/fantasy novel. Since then his creativity has stretched to screenwriting and he has found his style benefiting from the wider influences offered through his degree-level studies.

A Splinter Of Faith - Synopsis
Life in the future was uneventful for Sam. All he had to look forward to was a visit from his best friend Jake before returning to his studies, until he received a very unusual package which changed his life. He was to be the saviour of the universe and carry on his father’s work. But he was Sam, just Sam. No special training, no previous knowledge, no idea! Until his rather strange aunt arrived to take him in hand and start his training. Magic would be required, and plenty of it, as he was to face peril from unimaginable beings from the seven worlds.
