I'm not a full fledged writer more like a writing hobbyist.  I've submitted a story to Isaac Asimov's Science fiction & Fantasy magazine back in high school and got a polite letter for turning me down.  I have one story published on the web called Gultegra's Glory and everything else I've done is sitting safely on my laptop.

   I'm a big fantasy nut and some of my favorite authors are Margaret Weis & Tracy Hickman, Robert Jordan, David Eddings, CS Lewis and Lloyd Alexander.  I started with Lion, Witch & the Wardrobe and have never left the genre since.
