Books got me early—Redwall, The Hobbit, the Dragonlance trilogy—they shaped me as a young reader and a young man.

That kicked off decades of fantasy novels, a decade-long Ultima Online obsession, and an itch to tell my own stories that I never fully scratched.

Now, with two kids and a 40th birthday looming, I figure there’s never a better time to finally “turn pro”. I don’t know exactly what kind of author I’ll turn out to be, but I’m here to find out—and I’d love your company along the way.
