Darius grew up in the small one road town of Williamston, SC. As a young child, he enjoyed childrens books and had his mother read them too him often. Darius would draw pictures of his favorite super heroes as a boy and as he got older, his drawings looked better and better. Still a kid at heart, writing childrens' books and illustrating them is as exciting to him as when his mom used to read them to him years ago.
