I love all things manga, anime and video games and have never grown out of reading teenage fiction! My favourite authors are J.K Rowling, Chris Wooding, Terry Pratchett, and Philip Pullman. I've loved creating my own stories and worlds since I was in high school, and attempted many times to write a novel, but failed miserably when I realised that I hadn't planned the plots well enough in advance. Then, a few years ago I decided to do things properly and plan an entire novel. It took me six months of planning and then a year and a half of writing, and eventually man whore was completed.
