Hi Michelle, I answered by private message.

Tough one as most fantasy worlds face some kind of impending doom, which doesn't make for particularly safe destinations.
In sc-fi, I'd take the expanse's universe, the novels take place at an interesting stage in mankind venture into the stars (I'Ve only read 3 so far though, don't know if I'd stick with that opinion after that). Going out there in a spaceship to explore the unknown would be what I'd be after.
If we're talking fantasy, definitely not Westeros! With my legendary lack of tact, it'd be a matter of time before Cersei would have me killed... It's not my favorite fantasy world, not by far, but I'd go for Hary Potter's world. Training as a wizard is a lot less dreary than most magic users in other fantasy worlds and I could spend my days seeking magical creatures to observe after graduating!

Ha ha that's a good one. I got your mail from Dan in the group, but I can still send you a friend request :)

That's a tough one since I still consider myself an aspiring writer... I'd say that whatever happens, stick with it. It took me ten years to complete Seeds of Hatred as I studied at university, started working as an electrical engineer (I still do) and got my three children. Even if I don't earn a living by writing, I'm still proud to have completed my book and I intend to continue as I have always loved creating and that's something writing lets me do, whether I am read or not.

Most recent doesn't really applies as I only got one book published, but for that one, it started from a setting I had created for a game of dungeons and dragons in which we played only once, but I liked what I had and decided to create a story in it. That's what became Seeds of Hatred.

I get to create worlds of fiction. That's something I always liked to do, imagine places, people and explore themes I see in life through something I create.

Trying to get Seeds of Hatred reviewed. I intend to do further work on the editing afterwards and also start working on Flames of Vengeance, the follow-up.
