Welcome!

For my entire life I dreamt of being an author as my love for writing was always strong. For years, I grappled with taking the necessary steps to publish my work. Despite writing since the age of eight, my attempts at storytelling often ended in failure. My stories drew inspiration from the world around me, the tales I read, and the games I played. In my childhood, influenced by Goodfellas and my friend's Mafia II gameplay on Xbox 360, I tried crafting a mafia novel. Needless to say, it's now a lost and somewhat ridiculous tale. 

Throughout high school, I dedicated four years to shaping a world inspired by the Elder Scrolls, minus the magic and fantastical creatures, leaning more towards A Song of Ice and Fire. This endeavor became my love for writing. I crafted a map, almost completed a first novel, and built an entire universe, detailing everything from animals and cities to notable, famous characters within it. I no longer have the novel nor much of the lore. All that remains is a handful of printed papers, a mere fragment of what once existed. I harbor no regrets; the experience fueled my passion for writing and constructing diverse universes. I found solace in these worlds I crafted and I knew that my life would be dedicated to literature; a perpetual love for a craft that served as my escape, much like it has for countless others.

Join me in the escape! From everyday tales to adventures and action, and potentially future forays into sci-fi and fantasy. I hope my work brings you enjoyment and, perhaps, inspiration.
