edit data

I'm a freelance writer/instructor currently living in north-central British Columbia. I also enjoy playing video games (particularly RPGs and tactics games like Fire Emblem as well as the Mario/Kirby games), reading, hiking, taking care of animals, and shopping (on occasion). I would love to someday be able to make a full (or nearly full) living purely from writing fiction, but at least I'm fortunate enough to be able to work as a writer at all at this point.

It's so Strange....

I've been doing book signings over the last couple of days. Just a few mind you-mostly for Patrick's work buddies who bought the book and then wanted author signage (goodness knows why!) It's such a strange feeling to hold my first book as is and then it's compounded by signing the silly thing. I'm thinking that I should have a book signing event for Glass Slipper Conspiracy; at least then I can s Read more of this blog post »
