Introduction
| Writing is something that has interested me for a long time, way before games. My favorite genre for writing is fantasy/sci-fi, and I sometimes also have fun with parody. In my writing, my focus is character development, especially the protagonist, and dialogue. I do my best to try to bring the extraordinary of fantasy and science fiction events into reality through the characters. |
