Pandemic inspires Owasso 8th grader to become a published author

TULSA, Okla. — Abram Smith is 14 years old, plays classical violin and golf, competes in STEM and robotics and is now a published author. His book, “The Quantum State,” is about the U.S. being in a post-COVID-19 Cold War with China over the origins of Covid-19.

The main character is a student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (where Abram would love to go to college) and finds out about a secret government agency.

Abram tells FOX23 he was inspired to write this book because of all the questions surrounding the Coronavirus.

He says this creative outlet gave him something fun to do throughout the pandemic to avoid feelings of isolation or depression as other students have felt.

His book comes out June 17th and can be preordered now through abramsmithauthor.com
