When I was small my mother and grandmother used to read to me every night before bed. I guess that's where my interest in literature began. I've probably read more than a hundred books in the last three years. I got interested in writing a long while back, and while I know I'm not anywhere near the level of being good enough to get published I'm writing as much as I can. Practice makes perfect, as they say. |
I concentrate mostly on speculative fiction, most notably fantasy. I have two epics planned at the moment, both in my port. |
I write mostly in third person, though I prefer to write short stories in first. |
Well, writing and reading would of course be at the top my list. Other than that I have a huge interest in music (both listening to and making it). |

All of the speculative fiction genres which include fantasy, sci-fi, horror and paranormal. And anything Stephen King! |
The Dark Tower Sequence by Stephen King, The Black Magician Trilogy by Trudi Canavan, Insomnia by Stephen King, Sabriel, Lirael and Abhorsen by Garth Nix, and many more. Too many to only mention in the space of 250 characters. |
STEPHEN KING! Dean Koontz Trudi Canavan C.J. Elisson Garth Nix Christopher Paolini |
Edgar Allan Poe without even a single doubt. And Lascelles Abercrombie for the poem "The Box" which is probably the only poem that's ever made me cry. |

Oh, too many artists! Elton John, Billy Joel, Queen, George Michael, The Killers, Lady Gaga (I'm ashamed to say!), Eminem and lots and lots more. |
Pay It Forward, The Green Mile, Chicago, The King and I (hehe, that's like a 60's movie) and, once again, lots more. |
