About Audra

living, breathing, and laughing creatively

Meet Audra Mann-Janz

Hello! I’m Audra…

An Earth-loving author…

Inspired by Nature and the vastness of the Universe!

I love reading, learning, watching whimsical films, imagining other worlds…

And writing my way through life.

When I’m not writing, you can find me picking up rocks on riverbanks…

Practicing yoga in the sun…

Or walking around the neighborhood with my husband, Tom, and our adventurous cat, Eclipse.

I love reading, learning, watching whimsical films, imagining other worlds…

Writer. Explorer. Human.

The daughter and sister of wanderers, I’ve lived all over the United States – even Alaska! – and visited an ever-growing chunk of the rest of the country.

I’ve also explored many other corners of this amazing world…

Studied philosophy, religion, biology, chemistry, physics, and geology…

And earned degrees in Philosophy & Religious Studies (Bachelor of Arts) and Earth, Environmental, and Physical Sciences (Master of Science).

The more I see and learn, the more I realize how connected all life on our planet is…

And I want to foster that connection with my work.

Through my fiction, I seek to celebrate the intellectual advancements of humanity…

Respect and learn from the ancient wisdom we carry in our physical forms…

And help restore balance with Nature.

This is an amazing, expansive time to be alive!

Let’s embrace, build, and explore the future together!
