I wrote my first novel almost by accident, it was something to keep me from losing my mind when working a job that was draining the life from me.  After that, I’ve had trouble stopping myself from writing.  Short essays become short stories that become books.

I was born in small town Minnesota, raised on Tolkien, Anthony, Asprin, Heinlein, Dahl and Wells.  Later I found Mieville and Lovecraft, Sanderson and Lackey, Stiefvater and Gaiman.  Great writers have convinced me to attempt to coax words from myself, to try and share the things that live behind my eyes.  Thank you for being party to my madness.
