David Swan

Biography

I have been writing for 5 years and prefer novellas. I have not yet established a genre and find myself enthused by an idea and then build a story around it that happens to be science-fiction or urban fantasy.

I studied creative writing at Bangor University, Wales and had the chances to study other great writers which helped me a lot.
I have not written much since a I have traveled a lot recently but I am starting to fire things up again.

Looking at what I have written so far I am inspired by the world around me, my own personal experiences, and my hopes and fears for the future.

How do you discover the ebooks you read?

Do you remember the first story you ever wrote?
Yes, it was in an English writing class while I was in the RAF Police. The tutor mentioned that I had a great imagination but it would be twenty years before I would set pen to paper.
