❝ Why We Exist ❞

The world rushes on — fast, loud, shallow, and forgettable.
But fiction…true fiction…refuses to be forgotten.

It slows us down.
It calls us to remember who we are—and to imagine who we could still become.

Life of Fiction is the storytelling forge of Jaime Buckley, creator of the Wanted Hero Universe—an internationally loved world of magic, humor, and heart.

Here, stories aren’t just escape—they’re blueprints for becoming.
They teach courage. They awaken empathy. They remind us that the smallest choices shape the greatest destinies.

Because we believe one truth above all:

You are MORE than you THINK you are.

❝ Who’s Behind This? ❞

Jaime Buckley is an author, illustrator, and father of thirteen who writes redemptive fantasy that helps readers laugh, heal, and believe again.
His Wanted Hero Universe blends the wit of Terry Pratchett with the heart of C. S. Lewis—stories where magic meets meaning and humor hides hope.

And then there’s me—
Höbin Luckyfeller, gnome historian, field scribe, and your occasionally exasperated narrator.
I document the truths behind the tales, keep Jaime honest, and archive the wonders of our shared world.
(And yes, I’m real. Mostly.)

We’re building a living world—a place where imagination becomes inheritance.
