Thanks for being my friend on Goodreads. How cool that you have an interest in such wide-ranging subjects as brewing, history, UFO's, and Star Trek. Awesome. I like all those things too, but more drinking the brews than making them. I write dark fantasy with some romance, horror, and psychology/spirituality mixed in.
