My Story
At an early age, I was introduced to Robert Heinlein’s Stranger in a Strange Land and have been an avid reader ever since. As a teen, I picked up a copy of Lord of the Rings and expanded my love of reading to include Medieval Fantasy. By 18 years of age, I knew I wanted to be an author—the dream of sitting in a coffee shop and spinning tales of adventure, bravery, adversity and grief, love and friendship, overcoming insurmountable odds, and creating the unimaginable. However, as most of us find out, “Life Interruptist” delayed this dream until 2012 when I turned my energy full-time to writing.
Fantasy is all about creating characters that are believable and surrounding them in the richness of a world that feels authentic. My greatest joy comes from a Reader connecting with my characters and the world I’ve imagined.
