So, I write. A lot! I have a fair few full, novel-length stories over there >>>>>>>>> check 'em out. Ummm, please?
I write mainly Fantasy stuff, set in my own "Patrons' World" and that's the genre I enjoy writing the most.
The next favourite genre is Sci-Fi, and I have a couple of those for Sci-Fi fans to read.
On the list >>>> is a New Adult story, a Historical Fantasy, a Romance story, a Christmas novella and a Horror novella. There's a couple of FanFics, too (Elder Scrolls and Fallout).
I enter awards, sometimes, and I read other people's works and don't expect reciprocation.
But, mostly, I write. A lot! As you can see.
