My name is William Fex, "Bill" to my friends, and I've been writing as a hobby since I was eleven when I first fell in love with the horror genre. I must have started a dozen books and abandoned a hundred stories, before I finally lost the taste for the genre and wrote nothing for seven years. Then, in January of 2012 I started writing again, this time fantasy, inspired by a game that I've been running on irregular Friday nights for the past nine years, in a world I first conceived nearly twenty-eight years ago. The events in these books are roughly based on the current campaign that started in 2003, but many people have played in my world throughout the years and it has grown into a richly textured place.
Once I'd gotten started, it took only 14 months to write, rewrite and edit, and the result is roughly 623 pages at 12pt Courier, double spaced, with 1" margins, which the publishing industry tells me is 155,750 words, but Word says it's just over 129,000. I know this is a bit large for a first work, but it's what it took to tell the story.
My players are currently mid-way through what I consider to be book eight, and I'm already 11,000 words into the rough draft of the second book.
Even if I cant get published, I'll keep writing, because this story really wants to be told, and I really want to tell it.
