Ethan T. Marston was raised in Illinois, but spent a good chunk of his life in Utah as well—he even returned to Utah to study writing and nutritional science in Provo. While there, he became very involved in the LGBTQ+ community, he emerged from the depths of the closet, and (to his surprise) he met his spouse, Al. He and Al are currently raising their daughter and trying to decide what the heck to do with their lives in Missoula, Montana. Ethan enjoys taking pretty pictures of nature, being social, petting dogs, and writing fiction.
