Brief Author Bio:

:: November 7, 2008 ::
Never apologise, never explain

I have an allergy to exposition. It makes me break out in hives, get a migraine, and my airways close up until I am stabbed in the heart with a needle full of adrenaline. I hate being talked down to as a reader, and when anyone attempts to explain anything to me, it must be because they think I'm stupid, and why would I ever inflict that on anyone else?

The problem is, it turns out, that when you have all this wonderful, fleshed out world and character backstory and geography and history completely worked out in your mind, but you never put more than a hint here and there on the page, your readers don't really pick up on the nuances.

Synopsis: Spirit to Spirit

Another angle on the story/setting/characters I've been spiraling in on for ten years now.
