From my heart to your hands
Hello! My name is Mykela Cottam, and I publish under the name M.A. Cottam. I am 24 years old and I currently work full time as a vet tech. In my spare time, I like to read, draw, and, of course, write.
​
I started writing stories when I was very young, and it started out as fanfiction from other fandoms. I soon began to develop my own ideas and began typing out stories in Google Docs during middle and high school. Because I had so many stories I wanted to write, I would usually write a chapter in each book before jumping to the next, which helped me when I had writer's block on certain books, though it also made it a slow process to finish any one book. I finally decided to start on just one project, and I managed to write the second and third books of my debut series in a matter of weeks.
​
Originally, I had no intentions of ever publishing my books. It was just a way to get the ideas in my head on page, written out in physical form. When I finished writing my debut series, however, I realized how much I wanted to share it. So, I decided to step completely out of my comfort zone and into the publishing world.
​
It's been crazy to try and figure everything out, but I'm so excited to tell my stories. I hope everyone loves my characters just as much as I do and is just as excited about my plots as I am.
