I've always wanted to be a writer and tell tales of magical worlds where dark creatures roamed. The thing that inspired me to write the most was the Riftwar saga by Raymond e Fiest. I originally wanted to be a movie director but writing books was more cheaper and i can do it from the comfort of my computer :)

I am currently working on Episode 3 of my Dark Ranger series. An epic fantasy novel and another anthology of dark stories. My aim is to have these out by the end of 2021.

Keep working no matter what. In my first few years as a writer i made no money at all but i kept going to bring more stuff out. Try and be part of small writing groups. Maybe work as part of an anthology series to get your name out there. Remember to always take feedback positively and always strive to be the best.

You can write about anything you want. Bring your dreams to life and create something that is unique to you.

Write down what happens. Expand each sentence until you have a first draft. Remember first drafts are always going to be bad, you can always sort stuff out in the second draft and improve the flow. I recommend watching Brandon Sanderson's videos on YouTube, they helped me a lot.
