Author: ladyofthepen
I’m an aspiring novelist and usual write in the realm of fantasy and sci-fi, though I’m getting into alternate-history, primarily steampunk.
I have an odd assortment of interests, they range from an obsession with reading and writing and other nerdy things to training in several different martial arts and having a thing for weapons. I’m a Christian and do my best to make sense of the crazy world we live in. I also have a weakness for cats and their larger cousins, especially tigers.
My blog contains many of my thoughts on writing, I also post reviews on books and movies and write about random nerdy things. So, dear reader, I hope you have an interest in one or more of these things or else my rantings will likely sound quite mad.
