Lee Edward Födi, known as the Wizard of Words, has been writing and illustrating stories about magic, monsters, and mystery for as long as he can remember. Growing up on a farm, he once harbored childhood aspirations for taking over the family business. Unfortunately, this dream came to an abrupt end when he accidentally ran the tractor over his dad s outhouse (thankfully, his dad was not inside at the time). As a result, he went on to pursue his love of art, mythology, and storytelling, all of which (luckily) do not require any skill in operating heavy machinery. Fodi has a degree in English Literature and a diploma in Fine Arts. He lives in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
