About Me
I have been writing since the age of 12, when I wrote my first short story "Space War 300". The first 6 pages were mine, the last 6-7 were copied from the novelization of Return of the Jedi. Not an auspicious beginning, I grant you, and Mr. James Kahn, the novelizations author, had nothing to fear from me.I'm a little bit more original now. I write what I read, mostly military sci-fi, adventure. I am working on a Tolkien-esque type fantasy, but that is in the very early stages of development.
