I first started roleplaying in 2006 in a game called Tyran. There was a chatroom, and a forum, and for about two weeks I lurked around trying to figure out what the hell was going on and how I could participate. I still remember how nervous I was when I first posted in the room, and on the forum. I played by myself for a while until eventually someone took notice. They taught me the ropes, and I was hooked. I played there for years and some of the stories I got to collaborate on have stuck with me. Even my name here is a throwback to an old character from that era. Eventually I moved on, but I'll always be grateful.
In the years since I've roleplayed in many other places, covering a wide variety of genres. I've worked with large groups and done one-on-one collaborations. I participated in NaNoWriMo and wrote my first book. I wound up self-publishing a total of four, and maybe one day I'll write another one. Writing is a passion of mine, as I'm sure it is for many of you. Why else would we be here?
As far as genres go, I'm a sucker for romance, fantasy, and anything supernatural/paranormal. Nothing is ruled out, though. I love a good challenge and trying something new. My roleplay style is pretty casual - averaging around 500 words, give or take depending on my Muse and what my partner gave me. I enjoy both complicated, intricate plots, and easy, simple ones. I think the story will dictate which way things go.
About me personally, there isn't much to tell. I'm a total bookworm, but not a book snob. My primary source of material is Kindle Unlimited, because I just read that many books a week. I'm happily married and we have six kids between us, all of them mostly grown. I also have a full time job, which means I'm limited to posting two, maybe three times a week. More if Life allows it.
Well, that's about all I can think of to tell you right now. If you have questions feel free to ask! Otherwise, thank you for reading this. Extra special brownie points if you actually read the whole thing and didn't skip to the end. ;)
