About the Author

Born in Oakland, California, Clint Adams, now lives in Viareggio, Italy. Having authored numerous academic publications while at The Washington Post and McGraw-Hill, Clint now actively markets his two fear-eliminating teen novels, FEAR AIN'T ALL THAT and its sequel, DON'T BE AFRAID OF HEAVEN. Before writing, Clint was a professional, working actor with over 100 credits in TV, film, and theatre. He earned a bachelor's degree in drama from the University of California at Berkeley, and his master's in marketing from San Francisco's Golden Gate University.

Clint Adams says, "Who wouldn't want to be fearless? Probably everyone, but most likely teens. I wrote FEAR AIN'T ALL THAT and DON'T BE AFRAID OF HEAVEN, two teen novels, for a definite purpose: to help teens and adults eliminate, and live without fear, forever. When I began writing, I felt that if I ended up reaching one teen/adolescent, one who has struggled, but then one who decides to be unafraid of anything, then I did my job. I've already seen this happen, now I want to reach more."
