: About Me

I am a 24-year-old college student living in Florida. I do not know if I can consider myself a professional or expert writer but I do know that words come very naturally to me. They flow from my favorite fountain pen or from my own fingertips when I type. I have always loved to write and I have many short stories, poems, articles, blog posts, and hopefully soon a novel under my belt. Most of my ideas or opinions, I have kept to myself but lately I have felt that I should publish my work outside of my blogs. I suppose you could say that I have felt that need to be heard and, perhaps, touch a few hearts and minds along the way.

My passion is ...

anything in the arts, particularly writing.

I know too much about ...

fantasy novels, which are my favorite to read and write about.

My parents always told me ...

that I was either born into the wrong world or the wrong time period.

My childhood ambition ...

was to work in the arts, be it in writing, theatre, Hollywood, or the music business. I have a passion for it all.

My favorite memory ...

is of when I first learned how much magic there was between the covers of a book.

Why I write ...

I write because I have a lot of ideas or opinions that need to be expressed. I write fiction, in particular, because I like to escape to different worlds by reading, but sometimes I feel the need to create my own worlds.

My first job ...

was working as a sales associate at Dillard's, a trendy department store.

My best moment ...

I don't think it has happened yet but when it does, I will shout it to the world.

My inspiration ...

is my own imagination.

A Warrior's Fury His eyes fluttered open but he immediately closed them as the piercing brightness of the light invaded his head, almost stunning him. He groaned, hand flying to his head as a sharp pain seemed to stab him through the back of his brain. Another sharp pain in his neck halted his movements. He glanced around, letting only his eyes do the moving. He was in a large bedroom that was sparse in decoration but rich in taste. A few paintings dotted the walls and various furniture of polished mahogany were scattered throughout the spacious area. Where was he and why was he here? He t...
