I've read, watched, and played (D&D for nearly 20 years WOOOOOOOH! until I decided to leave the scene for good in '04)) all sorts of fantasy genres and I just got sick of the good guys wear white hats sort of scene. I never did this before so it's difficult to answer what it's about, other than it's a story that was locked into my head for years and now it's going to be in print. I'm not what I envision a person who writes books IS...I work at a dead end health care job, have x wives, few friends anymore, my family disowned me, swore off relationships, drink too much, smoke too much, too much whorin', gamblin', and...Oh crap...I'm fitting into an image now...well anywho...turning down the Pavement and Eliot Smith now seems like a good idea.I took a chance and decided to dip my feet a bit into some very dark and unknown waters. My English instructor said I could write (with a good spell checker handy), so I dropped out of my meaningless and all too expensive college program. In less than a year I wrote a book and I'm on my second; unfortunately I got the internet after nearly two years and have not wrote much!! I should be writing now...Oh there's WORD and there's my story...so why am I neglecting it? Poor thing...New toy syndrome I suppose.</blockquote>
