I grew up around science fiction, particularly Star Trek. By 1994, when I was 8, I already had a well developed interest in science fiction, and I started collecting Micro Machine spaceships. With these Micro Machines, I came up with my own Star Trek adventures. After a few years, I decided it would be a good idea if I wrote down these stories. After a couple more years, during which I completed 5 of my Star Trek stories, I had begun to broaden my science fiction horizons. I was inspired to create my own Universe. Over the next five years, I wrote a series of 45 short stories and several "novels", all set in that Universe. I first looked into publication in 2001/02, but my first "novel" was too short (50 pages) and it needed a lot of work. In 2004, my interests grew to include dragons. But, I still loved science fiction and continued writing in my Universe. By January 2005, inspired by Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern and getting an idea from an episode of the original Star Trek, I created my own dragon world set in my Universe. And so, Draconia was born. So far, I have completed three novels about Draconia. Right now, I'm working on an extensive re-write of my first "novels".
