I have been writing ever since I can recall, with copies of stories I wrote when I was just five.

At age 12, after having read The Hobbit, I decided that what I really wanted to become was an author.

It hasn't eventuated yet, but I still keep trying, writing and creating and building up a portfolio.

A native of Australia, I'm currently working in a school library as a library officer.  

I read and write mostly in fantasy, ranging from doorstopper epics down to my preferred style of sword and sorcery short stories, sci-fi, steampunk, cyberpunk and similar genres.

Favourite authors are J.R.R Tolkien, Terry Pratchett, R.E. Howard and Bernard Cornwell.  My favourite book ever is The Silmarilion by Tolkien.  A lot of people find it a bit dry, but being a bit of a history geek it is right in my field of interest.
