I'm from the Pacific Northwest. I began writing seriously in 2013, and have several published short stories on both online websites, and in printed books. I've helped my mother storyboard her children's books, worked with writers on comic book pages and illustrations, and led a free creative writing class for individuals aged high school, through elderly, Science-Fiction, Fantasy, and humor; often mixing the above in odd and unexpected ways. I believe strongly written characters in well-developed worlds will always tell a good story, because the world will provide the challenges, while the back stories of the characters will tell where the characters have come from; and thus determine where the characters will go. A world built well enough to give players one hand on the steering wheel though, is the best.
