Fencing is a game of living chess, a match where reflexes only work in combination with intent, and mind and body must work together at every moment.

I love being new places and hate getting there, and have been known to say on multiple occasions that I would give anything from a piece of my soul to a limb to a portion of my life savings to teleport. Especially when bad weather keeps me off planes.

I'm pagan.

I like to play with tropes.

It's not what people do that matters, it's why they do it.

As for advice for aspiring authors, the best I can give is to be brave. It sounds like a simple enough thing, but it's not. Rejection is such an integral part of this journey, and it never goes away.
