About the author
E.S. Lell
10 books14 followersBorn and raised in and around Denver, Colorado, I grew up with a family that encouraged imagination and looking at the world with a questioning nature.
As a result, I confounded all my teachers and was always the last to be picked when lining up for sports in gym class. But that was okay, because it gave me more time to figure out what sorts of animals might live in the methane seas of Titan!
I started writing (very, very badly) when I was in grade school, and continued ot write, on and off throughout my life. I've never formally studied writing, or literature (yet), but I have always had a keen interest in the worlds that other people created, so I have read obsessively ever since I was truly sucked in by a good fantasy novel in junior high school.
In my early teens, or maybe before then, I started playing role playing games, and instantly took to world-building and plot-mapping. I've been doing it ever since, using my time as a GM to flesh out the world of my Kalijor novels, and visa versa. I still game to this day, and am play-testing the Kalijor RPG and source books with a group of great friends and excellent critics!
My goal, through my writing, has always been more about self-defense, than entertaining others. I have all of these ideas in my head, and I feel as if keeping them there could be harmful to me in some way, so I write, as often and quickly as I can, in order to preserve what sanity I can. It was a complete shock to me, therefore, that someone expresed interest in reading my mad ravings!
I continue to write, hopefully in better and better ways, and I continue to get great feedback (not that I would stop writing if the feedback was terrible, I just might share a lot less). So, with any luck, I'll see you at the screening of the first Kalijor movie soon!
