Kawahara Reki

Kawahara Reki (川原礫) is the writer of Sword Art Online and Accel World (Wiki link). He uses the pen name Kunori Fumio and his hobby is cycling.

He voices Tin Writer of the Accel World anime adaptation.

He created the first book from the wish to become one of the top players he could not be when playing MMO games, and created the character of Kirito by making him someone that does what he likes and what he wishes, without thinking about consequences, much contrary to him.

The second book was written to focus on middle level players like him and add more story because the first book's story was too rushed to be able to finish on one book.
