When I was a kid I loved to play imaginary games which I think translated into writing fiction as an adult. 

Since I started pursuing this full time four years ago, it’s become more of a compulsion. I HAVE to do it now!

I always heard about artists who are obsessed with painting, or whatever art they create and I used to think how neat it would be to become so passionate about what you’re doing…I’m there now and it feels good.
