|   | Gender: | Male | | Birthday: | January 5 1971 | | Location: | Somewhere in Wisconsin | | About Me: | I have been writing since the age of 12, when I wrote my first short story "Space War 300". The first 6 pages were mine, the last 6-7 were copied from the novelization of Return of the Jedi. Not an auspicious beginning, I grant you, and Mr. James Kahn, the novelizations author, had nothing to fear from me.I'm a little bit more original now.
I write what I read, mostly military sci-fi, adventure. I am working on a Tolkien-esque type fantasy, but that is in the very early stages of development. | | Type of Writer: | The type who has sporadic flashes of inspiration, followed by long stretches of writers block. | | Writing Style: | One word at a time | | Interests: | Writing, the mountains, the woods, science fiction, old Errol Flynn movies | | Website / Homepage: | Joe Madden @ facebook.com | | Favorite Genres: | Science fiction, fantasy.
