I write short stories and poetry because its more fun. I've tried writing novels in the past and failed miserably (The Dragonboys is the only exception). Short stories and poetry are easier, more fun and straight to the point. I also get to add my own bits of Clusterfudge (my made up word for distorted poetry) to my writings.

The Rebirth of Heaven (not currently out yet) will mark my return to the publishing world. Its release will mean something grand. I can't say much, yet.

I don't know. I love making them short, and they are poems and flash stories so they have to be short. It makes them easier to read and you don't have to navigate through a huge table of contents like the one inside Dragons and Cicadas (my subscription book). Plus, I can release as many as I like because they are so short. I kinda wish I could charge fifty cents for them.

Everything.
I don't have that many fans yet, and I haven't received any fan fictions or fan art, but the people that read my stories and poems mean everything to me. I get a certain joy when I know someone is enjoying my stories and they tell me how much they love my writing. Its a feeling that never gets old. My fans remind me of how much I love writing and publishing my work for them to see and read.

The 13th update of Dragons and Cicadas and (hopefully) a new issue/story file for the TSODR series.

Nope.

Type, read, proofread and publish. TRPP.

Doing nothing. Really. Doing nothing. Just writing and publishing is effective itself.

Being able to publish what I want and how I want. I don't have to hire an agent or any of that technical stuff and I can do anything I want. Yaaaay for DIY~!

It has taught me about publishing and has led new readers to my works. It also looks cool and I love seeing my stories listed on my author page.

Finishing a good story that makes me feel many emotions. Like The Dragonboys. It is at a point where I consider it complete. It makes me feel many things and I love how I was able to Clusterfudge history and add my own flair to it. Finishing a story is like birth (minus the pain and everything else that precedes it): I get to look at my pride and joy and feel proud.

Y'know, a user on Goodreads asked "why do we love dragons?" I replied with this response that sums up why I love dragons and why dragon fans in general love dragons:

"Because they're powerful, big scaley lizards that nobody knows about. We can shape them in any way we want from the perfect pet to the most awesome friend. There's something appealing about them in every form, even if its a tiny dragon, a dragon disguised as a human or an epic-sized space dragon of Draconizica, and they are varied. Because nobody on Parallel Earth knows about them historically, we can make them into our image of what a dragon should be. Sure. there are unicorns and zombies, but somehow we just can't make them as awesome as a big, powerful (or tiny) dragon. They can also be our opinions personified. We can make them warlike gods bent on our destruction, or gods whom refrain from killing us with their mighty power (thus making them vulnerable).

And they're just dang awesome."

My love of Sci Fi began ages ago. I think The Matrix is partly to blame for my love of the genre. Being thrown into another world full of futuristic buildings and high level technology is awesome. Being stuck on a planet with an Alien Queen is just plain terrifying. Having your mind projected into a virtual world with the weight of mankind on your back is scary and impressive. Sci Fi has so many possibilities. Don't get me wrong I love Fantasy, but the Fantasy genre seems too...I don't know how to say it but to me Sci Fi is better than Fantasy. Sci Fi has captivated me in many ways.

Aliens. Hands down. Aliens.

Aliens has that creepy feeling of being alone, outnumbered by bloodthirsty aliens and their homicidal mother, and your only weapon is a ragtag gang of military soldiers, yourself, a handgun, a scientist, an android and a little girl. That unfortunate mixture makes everything feel like a lost cause.
Alien 3 never happened. I liked it but it never happened.
