Hello to those who read, my name is Swan John Franklin Hoger Bylander the 3rd developing writer and thinker. I am a 23 year old male and have been writing for half of my life.
What inspired me to write I'd say was thru JJR Tolkien's work, and The Legend of Zelda games. I was also inspired by and I am trying to emulate the classical Greek play writers and poets, such as Homer, Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Plato. Their stories and heroes are invigorating, inspiring, epic, tragic, and majestic, and still inspire me to this day.
I started writing when I was 11 years old over time I put my own works on the shelves dealing with real life, job, college, that sorta thing. Now I have been retired for 3 years and had the time to work on my books.
My First Book, The Brothers of the Sword, The Waking Destiny, is approximately 258,136 words, 510 pages on word or 328 pages on watt, with 33 chapters. Status finished but may be proof-read again in a later date.
Book 2 , The Brothers of the Sword, The Gray of Good and Evil, is approximately 281,009 words, 542 pages on word, on watt unknown, with 57 chapters. Status proof reading currently and reworking, so the numbers you are reading currently may change over time.
I wanted to dedicate my work to the First World War to all those 37 million who perished in that brutal conflict 100 years ago.
Now on my work, I am not one person who is pro-war or an advocate of such affairs. I describe in vivid detail the horrors faced in such brutality and the choices made. And in my hope that my writings will inspire others to find courage in the darkness of their lives. I will be also posting Mythos Stores to my books for people to have a solid understanding of the world I created.
A few more things about me.
Openly a homosexual male.
I am a Goth, more or less a classical notion of being Goth like Mister Edger Allan Poe.
And that's all you need to know.
