Author has written 10 stories for Young Adult, General, Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Action, and Love.

I love reading, and writing, especially 'speculative fiction'- sci-fi and fantasy.

Story(s) I'm working on:

Recruited:

Finished but I need to post the typed portions and type the non-typed portions.Tell me what you think!

Northern War:

I started this ages ago and it went a different direction than i think it should go. I must've been really depressed back then considering the dark tone of the story. I do like dark, but only if there is at least a spark of light to redeem it.

Beyond the Rim

1/19/13 Going back to look at the first chapter, it starts out rather unfocused and disjointed. I will probably rewrite it at some point before I move on to the next chapter. I do have a general idea of where it is going. Maybe even a series if it turns out.

Blue Moon

May or may not get anywhere with this. Tell me what you think!

Wizards and Tyrants

Update:

12/1 Story is now complete. I may at some point go back and edit, but it's probably best if I let it sit a while and go on to other projects, so it will be fresh when I look at it again. Feel free to comment or question though--I will incorporate things I learn in future drafts.

But for now, on to the next story!

11/14: I am writing the last chapters. I am trying to write the final chapters first and then post them so there are no inconsistencies. That way, after a gap in posting, there will be several chapters posted soon after each other. That's my plan at least.

11/5: I have finally gotten a new computer, and installed MS Office on it. Now I can actually type documents! Including stories!

I just revised Chapter 16 some, because I realized that in Silverwood Forest, it'd be very hard to practice conventional magic, especially for a beginner. Can't believe I missed that! Sometimes writers can be too close to their work. Or something. Anyway, it pays to re-read and edit. Other people can also catch mistakes- in the future, I hope I catch them before you do! :)

11/1: I just posted a new chapter, which is rather long to make up for the wait. I may be getting a new computer tonight. I may be able to make do with an iPad, but it is kind of a pain. You can't do everything with it, I'm figuring out.

earlier:

My computer crashed on me, and may be permanently dead. Right now all I have is my iPad. I am working on the story, but it may take a while since I'll probably have to get a new computer to get much done.

I've been stuck in the middle of it for a while, but recent reviews and followers have encouraged me to try to finish it. Suggestions are always appreciated, as are specific reviews in which you tell me why you like something.
