I don't believe that there is anything after we die. And while I don't believe in an "end of days" so to speak, I do believe that nothing is truly eternal.

Random things can inspire me. The clichés like mountain ranges and abandoned buildings are nice, but mostly I sit and free write. It always my brain to turn a spark into an inferno. Once I start, I never want to stop. I end up having multiple projects I am working on at once, some eat others, but that is how i get inspired, mostly. There is, of course, also my muse, my wife, who is the sole reason I started working on the Epic of Lucifer.

I am actually an atheist. I believe in no gods or any religion in part or whole. I find them all to be fascinating epics written to understand our world. I am fond of Lucifer as a character, because he knew the creator of everything and decided to stand against him for what he believed. I take this, and tell my version (through his eyes). I write it as if it were all completely true, for, within this epic poem, it is reality.

Live life to the fullest. Go on adventures, get out of your comfort zone, and do things that frighten you. You never know where in life you will find a muse that gives you a story to tell.

Force myself to write, because even if I delete all but one sentence at least I wrote that one sentence.

That adventure and magic exists at the tips of my fingers, and that I get to bring to life everything that lives within my imagination. There is no greater bliss than telling a story.

I am currently working on an epic fantasy/horror series that will span many worlds. The first book is called Mad World. It is a passion project of mine, one that will probably take my entire life to finish the entirety of it.

I have always found the fall of Lucifer a fascinating story. God's most beautiful creation knew who made the heavens and the earth, made everything, and defied him. He stood against the creator of all. That to me is something that we can use in everyday life. Go against the grain, stand up for what you believe in, and defy that which everyone says is to never be questioned. So I decided that I needed to tell that story. I took a different route that may offend people, but it was a tale that needed told.
