Andrew Warwick


Biography

I have been writing ever since I can remember, even as a very young child. I was lucky in that all through out my schooling I was actively encouraged to write. And write I did, telling many fanciful tales.

Eventually though our school days end and we must venture forth to find work to support ourselves and that, alas, leaves not as much time to pursue writing dreams.

The ideas never stopped coming through that period though, and resulted in copious amounts of notes, synopsis and outlines jotted down for future use

Having a bit more free time on my hands, the time has come to do something with those ideas and to pander to the delusions of authorhood that are mine.

I am a writer of fantasy, exploring the history and mythology as well as the adventures of a world many years in the making, in stories both short and long.
