Author bio:

I'm the mumbling weirdo in the corner with a tall stack of books, a large Dr. Pepper, and headphones blasting. Also, I'm probably singing. Even if it's in public.

“Oh, you write?”
“Yeah, I have a gift for it, some people have told me.”
“That's cool, what do you like to write?”
“Epic stories, mainly science fiction. Stories of empires and vast, titanic struggles.”
“You write that kinda stuff?” Sean asked, impressed.
Richard looked over at him, grinning. “I try to.”
