INFO



I'm a geek writer. I'm also a trap, a grad student, a slob, and a profoundly lazy individual (although, surprisingly, I get shit done when it needs doing). I write speculative fiction set in a universe of my own creation, and recently a number of out-of-continuity pet projects (hahaha, superhero fantasies! tee hee, boarding school stories!). I don't plan on ever making a living on my writing, except maybe academically, and I aspire to use my linguistics education to get a nifty job with the government.

I take great pride in a job thoroughly done. But I also have a terrible memory for unimportant things like names, faces, errands, etc. I can, however, remember facts and trivia about important things like books, movies, tv shows, and comic books.

My writing is my life. My favorite part of the process is creating characters, closely followed by creating universes. In the past few years, I have vigorously applied what I have learned in history and anthropology classes to my fiction to create ever-more-detailed worlds and cultures and people. I also have a tendency to crib stuff from anything and everything in the world around me, including the things I read and watch. My influences are legion. I love speculative fiction, space opera, and science fiction, and of course my favorite stuff tends to be pretty obscure, which means fellow fans are far and few between.

I use this journal to keep my writing notes, but mostly it's just an external memory log because I can't remember anything on my own.

I aspire to write my novels before I die, become fluent in Japanese, and have a thrilling life
