About Author Ed Masessa

Almost twenty years ago, Ed turned to the wonderful memories of his childhood and began to write. Many of those early stories will never see the light of day. Writing is a craft that takes time, patience, and many revisions. But by continuing to practice and by reading many, many, MANY books by much better authors, Ed was eventually published.

His second book, The Wandmaker's Guidebook, had a nine-week run on the NY Times Bestseller list, two weeks at #1! He has several works of non-fiction, and his first picture book, Scarecrow Magic, is now on sale. Two companion novels to The Wandmaker's Guidebook are available also!
