I'm kind of all over the place when I read. If you count audiobooks, I read a lot of history, classic literature, and science fiction, with a little fantasy thrown in for good measure. I like the broad scope when an author can build a world that makes sense, but if there aren't believable characters, it won't hold my interest

I've written little pieces of fiction ever since I was a child. I think the first coherent short story I wrote was so long ago. It was about what happens to the world when a magical artifact is pulled out of an ancient tomb in the Himalayas. A pulse around the world caused mythical beings to be brought into existence. So, you've got each area's creatures: Yetis in the Pacific Northwest, leprechauns in Ireland, and dragons of all shapes and kinds all over the place. There was vampires and werewolves and everything else, too. Half disaster, half wish fulfillment? Yeah, it was pretty awful!
