Guess I've been putting this off long enough... Anyway, names Joe, I live in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I guess I would call myself an aspiring writer. Being published would be great, especially if I could make a living off of it and quit my crumby job. I mostly read fantasy. I think George R.R. Martin and Steven Erikson are tops in this genre. Recently, though, I've taken a real shine to the true American classics (Twain, Steinbeck, Orwell). I hope to write fantasy, but also modern settings with fantastical twists. The work I've posted already is of the later variety, and is in the
Critique and Advice forum. Please, check it out, and thanks.
