Find the Magic
When I was in the fourth grade, I walked into a wardrobe and never came out again.
That was the year I first read The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, the year I wrote my first novel, and the year my mother told me I should be a writer. I never got over any of it — I’ve been inventing worlds and characters and stories ever since.
Somehow, in the midst of all this magic, I’ve managed to stumble my way through a 20-year career as a professional writer and editor that’s included everything from content marketing to magazine publishing to game design and back again. I’ve learned that no matter what you’re writing, a good story is essential, and I’ve found my passion learning what makes a story good.
A Fantasy Writer’s Resource
The more I study about the craft of writing fantasy, the more I want to share what I I have learned with other writers and lovers of fantasy. From practical advice on the nuts and bolts of writing to facing the challenges of writers block, from exploring rich veins of inspiration to tapping your inner creative genius, my goal is to encourage magic and ink flow across the page.
