edit data

Joshua Stavick is a conjurer of worlds who’s built a cozy nest for himself amongst the clouds. Since 2018, he’s been crafting new realms and falling headlong for the flawed, fascinating characters he’s met along the way.

His current project is called The Elspar Stories and features a solar system brimming with petulant gods and their morally grey creations.
Originally stemming from the emerald forests of the PNW, he now lives in the concrete wilds of Romania with his raccoon-husband.
