This page includes a collection of my writing and poetry.

The stories are some of my earliest and are a good place to start if you're interested in my writing. I was a teenager at the time I wrote most of them; my writing has come a long way since but I think the ideas are still good and they show how my writing began.

I started writing poetry much later than fiction. These show my evolution quite well and I consider myself as much a poet now as a fiction writer, which is ironic as I didn't think I was much of a poet at first.

I hope you enjoy my writing.
