About me...about me...hmm...

Well I'm living just outside Toronto and mostly through University, then it's off to teacher's college so I can be...an English teacher! Of course! Thanks to my grand love of reading and, more importantly, writing, it's what I've wanted to do for a long time.

Been writing seriously since I was about 11 and started working on a full-length novel by 14 (which, come to think of it, I never finished after 165 hand-written pages). Since then I've finished 2 novels, 2 novellas, and countless short stories. For now I'm working mostly on Sigma/Star, which already has two volumes released and is such a blast to write. Thanks to all fans for support! I'm also looking at writing a couple other stories in various genres because I'm always looking to challenge myself.

Built a website for Sigma/Star and for the new manga that's coming out. I suppose with its release I'm officially a comic artist now but we need a ton of fan support from everybody possible to help with this project. Please subscribe to the blog or become a ember of the website and help us out!

I am also an extremely honest and brutal critic. I go very in-depth on nearly everything I look over and also do a fair bit of editing and tutoring in writing. I really enjoy tutoring people and helping them perfect their work and improve so if you ever would like some of that I'm usually happy to talk to anyone, provided I'm not super busy.

Otherwise I'm just a tennis coach, because, sadly, writing is not really a real job and I have to make money somehow. Such is the plight of most professional writers!

Why was my convo taken down because I didn't put an ad in the 'Critiques Classifieds', and then got told off for self advertising for my other critiquing convo? It's becoming impossible to write in the 'Improve Your Writing' club now.@NickUskoski 
ok then@NickUskoski

@DifferentFromThem you cannot ask people to read your story, that is a form of self advertising. You're not allowed to direct people to your work. If you're looking to improve your work, look in the critique classifieds for people offering help
i dont even know what i did wrong? I went to the imporve your writing and started a convo on how to get help to imporve mine so hwere did i go wrong?
