Hello! Welcome to my Fieldby account!
To keep everyone informed, I don't use this very often. The consumption of being a full time student is quite a load to handle while trying to write a book.

Thank you! |
Influences/Inspirations:
The influence of the series came from a dream that I had. This dream, being very vivid and easy to remember was written down after the first night. This dream picked up right where it left off the next night and continued for several nights until the dreams stopped, forming what is now the series at hand. Other inspiration came from my family and friends who encouraged me to not give up, as well as from God above to lead me to where I am today.
Favorite Writers and Artists:
I enjoy the works of Steven King, J.K. Rowling (who have me a bit of hope for being a writer), and
Current Projects:
Currently, I'm a full time college student. But I still work hard in the series and do what I can. The next book in the series is currently underway, and I hope to finish it by 2011. Also, the website of the book has been completed. That was a big project in itself.
Interests:
Besides writing, I love to run and get into the outdoors. I'm also big into traveling and swimming, being a lifeguard at a local park near my hometown.
Family:
My family consists of my mother and father, as well as two younger brothers. Currently, my paternal grandfather is also residing with us.
University Affiliations:
My first college I attended as a senior in high school, in Ohio's Post-Secondary Program. I earned college credits that counted towards high school graduation. After finishing up high school, I left Ohio to attend the Chicago State University.
