I’m a creative writer of LitRPG and historical fantasy. My articles are about the craft and process of creative writing, in particular, writing fantasy.

I've been writing fantasy for a number of years. My first series was The Druid Stones Saga, a historical fantasy set in medieval Scotland.

Since then, I have discovered a love of LitRPG, and have written several works set across different eras. The Shadow Kingdoms series is a group of stories, including 'gamelit' and short stories, as well as novels. Read some examples here:

Sorcerer, Level 1 (Webnovel – read it here on Medium!)

Wishful thinking (flash fiction)

or my story in the free anthology, Git Gud

My other LitRPG works are set in the near future, but because they involve immersive VR games, they read more like fantasy novels. 'The Tooth and Claw' guild is in many ways a classic LitRPG, but there are some real twists the further you go. 'Sparta Online' is an ebook series that ties in to the same world. You can read more about it here:

What is Sparta Online all about?

I aim to use my experience to help others start out or develop their creative writing skills and produce their own fantasy writing. Check out the following:

I'll also be delighted if you sign up to my newsletter, in which I share articles, reflections, recommendations, and news on my latest publications.

Thanks for reading – and writing! :)
