Biographie de jimpurviance
I've been writing for many years from a young age. In Junior High (middle school, now) a friend and I would write stories by trading off chapters. We both liked the same girl and sometimes I would write that I had won her over and in his part he got her. When I got into Science Fiction, I wrote in that genre. I was hanging around a group of SF&F writers in the San Francisco Bay area who were all quite famous in their field.
I never got anything published because I was too busy working and raising a family. I took creative writing classes at a community college as we'll as several English, Astronomy, and Philosophy classes. At University of California at Berkeley I also took Publishing and Editing courses. Back in the days before ebooks, I wrote an Erotica book and sent it in to a publisher who published books sold in X-rated video stores.
They sent it back saying there wasn't enough sex in it. From that experience I've learned that in order to sell books in that genre I had to spice up my writing. I like to think I've accomplished that fete. So far, I've published six books at Smashwords and actually sold some. I have a number of books I've been working on and plan to put more out in the coming months. As a relatively new author, It would be much appreciated if you would review and/or rate the books you have read.
I hope to have a web page and Facebook page up in the near future. I enjoy writing, and now that I have the time, I plan to make the most of something I have yearned to do for so many years.
