I was the black sheep of my family pretty much all my life, writing just seemed like next level once I fell in love with Tolkien and then GRR Martin early on. up until recently I was in closet writer and wrote these 365pages per story(because that's how many pages you get in a journal around here)
coming from a deathly boring life of monotony and routine fiction offered a way out and perhaps that's how it must've been for you too. 
Being a Tolkien fan, fantasy is most comfortable thing for me to both read and write and I don't think much of folks who confuse Hobbits with Dwarves or think GOT the show is better than the literary counterpart (sorry folks! but I can't)
Expect tales of Magic and Mystical from me but not the run of the mill wizardry, and also I pretty much don't believe in concept of happy endings so you've been warned.
I only write because if I don't it won't leave me be. if you know what I mean?
