I grew up reading fantasy books and watching science fiction whenever I could. When I was young, I played role playing games within the fantasy genre. Close to the end of my military career, I started to write. It was something I always wanted to do but never did. I wrote several science fiction stories, but now I am focusing on epic high fantasy for young and new adults.
