Benjamin Clayborne
Auror
Hello everyone! My name's Benjamin Clayborne, and I'm starting out as a fantasy author. I've been writing casually for a long time (and have had lots of unpublishable practice), but never had the self-discipline to actually complete anything as long as a novel. Sure, I tried the NaNoWriMo thing a couple of times, and in fact the novel I'm working on now started as a NaNo project a few years ago.
But then the demons of self-doubt got me with their little pitchforks, and I thought, ah, this is too hard. I'll stick with web programming.
Well back into the abyss with ye, foul demons of vacillation! This time I mean it. No, really.
The novel's about half done, and I know that writing is the hardest part, but it's not the only part. Community's important, and that's actually harder for me than writing. There's no chance the words will reject me, y'see.
