I started telling stories at campfires. My professional writing started six years ago, my wife and an editor mouse trapped me at the 06 world con in Anaheim, CA. I escaped the room party committed to two articles and a short story. Since then we have gone from E-magazine shorts to a serialized four part novella, to shopping around novels. It is like pumping water, you just have to keep moving the crank.
Regards,
Kevin

Hey all, I'm fairly new here but I came across this section of the forums as I breezed my way through. I figured this'll be a good a place as any to do some form of an introduction. Anyway, I started writing 3 years ago to relieve stress I was undergoing at my college. It helped a lot! Since I've started writing I've only finished one short story and started several others (just began a new one a couple days ago in fact). While publishing would be awesome it's not something I particularly desire for fiction to be honest. My real goal in writing is to get an academic paper publish in a journal some day on the late Roman Empire or Early-Mid Medieval Ages. Buuuut I'd be lying if I said I didn't want something published nonetheless if the whole academic thing doesn't work out. In fact my medieval teacher stated he is friends with a fellow who got a doctorate specializing on the Byzantine Empire but found no teaching job, so he wrote Byzantines in space and became a very successful author, go figure.
