I’m Writing a Novel
It’s an epic fantasy featuring a farm boy and a princess acting in ways you probably won’t expect. It’s about being true to yourself in the face of the world’s expectations and what happens when personal decisions have epic consequences.
I take my inspiration from folks like Robert Jordan, Brandon Sanderson, and George RR Martin, who write epic tales in worlds that feel real with a cast of characters that feel like friends.

What I Love About Fantasy
When I went through the wardrobe, I wasn’t the small shy kid who got overlooked by everyone. I wasn’t left on the sidelines. I had the inside scoop on something incredibly cool. That all my classmates had voted for it and thus also had the inside scoop was lost on first-grade me.
What I Hate about Fantasy
If you read this blog, there’s a good chance you have at least a dozen books on your shelf where someone is destined to save the world. They’re given special powers or a personality trait that is going to be the key thing that overcomes evil and allows goodness to thrive. It’s bullshit.
