You might find yourself reading one of my stories and thinking to yourself: "wow. What kind of illegal substance was he taking?"
That's really my goal. I try to write outside the boundaries of what I probably should be writing. Many would describe me as a bit of an eccentric person.
Yes.
I typically write complex sci-fi/fantasy horror with elements of human psychology. Ever since I watched Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings, I knew what I wanted to do with my life.
I try to involve an orange cat in any and all scenarios.

I read this one after The Plight of Steel, and thought it was fascinating. A little slow in the beginning, but the ending makes up for it completely. The story is familiar up until the twist at the end, where everything you just read is flipped on its head. It's a play, so its smaller and quicker to read with not as much description, but I thought the characters and the story were really interesting. The historical connection was cool too.
