Background
Information
I write fairy tales -- not the fairy tales of hundreds of years ago, mind you, but the fairy tales of TODAY. Today's wolves wear different clothing, and today's heroes are more than just woodsmen. Because they are the heroes and villains of today (and not from hundreds or even thousands of years in the past), they are close enough to us to be seen in three dimensions and full color. It's not as simple as good versus evil, but then, it never has been. Bravery, though . . . that is perpetually needed, in and out of fairy tales.
My first book is primarily inspired by my love of comic books, which are arguably the most comprehensive compilation of modern fairy tales I know of. It's also inspired by Old Norse/viking mythology, modern events, old fantasy or science fiction pulp novels, early Hollywood movies (and starlets), and other artists and madmen throughout history.
