I write stuff.

​

I finished reading The Lord of the Rings when I was eleven years old, and it warped me for life. (In a GOOD way, IMHO!)

 

I immediately began writing crappy Tolkien Mary Sue, because I wanted to read more books like that and there just weren’t any, in those days. (Please don't ask me what year that was!)

​

I wrote dozens and dozens of Crappy Tolkien Mary Sues all throughout high school. This might have worked out better for me if I hadn't written them during math class. 

​

I don’t write Tolkien knockoffs anymore, but I still write the kind of thing I wish I could find more of in book stores. That kind of thing tends to have fantastical elements, but it all takes place in a real and modern setting, right here in the good ol' U. S. of A!

 

There are what you might call "faeries" in my stories, but you had better not dare call them that to their faces! There are ghosts, but they are not evil. No more so than any of the humans you know, anyway. Like Nell’s T-shirt says: Ghosts are People, Too!

​

I guess mainly what I strive to write is soul-food for adults who refuse to stop believing that even grownups can encounter magic right here, right now, around any corner of this everyday, modern world.

Do you believe?
