My therapist did suggest that I try to reignite the passion for writing I had years ago that has since waned. They suggested a community like this, and from what I’ve seen so far it’s a good place to start. I do love fantasy, and I’ve written in the genre many times before. I’ve lost all my old...

Hello to all the Readers and Writers!
I have loved Sci-Fi/Fantasy for as long as I can remember!
From my days as a dewy-eyed boy dreaming of being Batman and Spider-Man, then my formative pre-teen years wanting to go on adventures with Percy Jackson and Carter Kane in...
