C.W. Renner lives in rural northwestern Illinois, where rolling fields of corn and soybeans meet the mighty Mississippi River. Tucked among twelve acres of hardwood timber and restored prairie, Renner’s home offers the ideal retreat for writing and reflection.
When not crafting stories, Renner can be found reading, wandering the woods, or diving deep into the latest advances in quantum physics, artificial intelligence, the mysteries of consciousness, and all things paranormal—themes that inevitably find their way into the novels. Renner’s debut novel, Kiara Burning, explores the blurred boundaries between human and artificial consciousness.
