2025 Incipere Award

2nd Place – YA Fantasy (Clean)

Award-winning author R.A. Dunne makes her fiction debut with Kingdom Keeper—a sweeping tale of courage, friendship, and the triumph of light over darkness. Dunne is the recipient of the 2025 Incipere Award for YA Fantasy CLEAN, 2nd Place for Kingdom Keeper.

Before stepping into the world of fantasy adventure, Dunne's writing focused on therapeutic recreation, including the 2020 publication Moments: From Extravagant Programs to Extraordinary Moments. Now, she's thrilled to introduce readers to Odemog, Skeeter, and a loyal band of allies whose adventures in Mazgamor celebrate the power of unity and hope.

Dunne lives along the Fraser River in New Westminster, British Columbia, a little corner of paradise that continues to inspire reflection, imagination, and the occasional mischievous squirrel.

“Crowned by Duty. Forged by Loss. Driven by Hope.”
