I'm a new writer of science fiction and adventure tales. I also make occasional forays into fantasy and realistic fiction. I love post-apocalyptic settings, utopias and dystopias, coming-of-age stories, and stories about underdogs struggling against the machine.

Consider this wall... walked!


I finished the rough draft of Wallwalker yesterday! It feels good to actually finish a piece. I had been feeling a bit disheartened about my writing lately, for various reasons, and yesterday I finally realized that the only thing to do was to keep at it–which inspired me to bang out the rest of the story. So there!

Incidentally, all of the main characters in the story are cats. After finishing the story, I found myself looking at my own cats differently. Particularly Luba, our Siamese, who reminds me a bit of the character of Dark Tiger… I know, I’m a weirdo ;)

I definitely want to come up with a better title, but for now I’m just calling it Wallwalker after the main character. Now–on to the whittling and polishing!

Oh, and I’ve made some progress on Sweet Heart Catalyst too:

And last but not least, I haz some new research books (and an excuse to try out the OpenBook plugin):

Police Procedure & Investigation

Whoever Fights Monsters
