BioMy first book, "Bronze Dragon Codex" will be released June 10, 2008 by Mirrorstone Books. Special thanks to ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
slwhitman for helping this fantasy become reality and to R.D. Henham, for allowing this lowly scribe to aid in "The Practical Guide to Dragons Adventures" project. For more information on the elusive R.D., please check out www.rdhenham.com!
Update! "Bronze Dragon Codex" was selected as a Flamingnet top pick!
Now, about me. I am a lover of Children's fantasy. Reading it, writing it, critiquing it, and studying it are all major interests of mine. Here you'll find my thoughts on all of these topics, and a few others.
I finished my MA in Children's Literature in 2005. As luck would have it, Hollins instituted an MFA program right when I was wrapping up the MA, so I decided to continue and get the MFA (which I should complete by 2008). I support my school and writing addiction by working as an electrical engineer. When I'm not reading, writing, or engineering, I craft compulsively, dream drastically, and try to stall the tide of books always threatening to flood my basement.
In addition to my website, I'm also on myspace at http://www.myspace.com/amieroserotruck. A sign that you spend too much time online is when there aren't enough slots on your profile page to list all the places where you can be found.
I am also interested in my family genealogy. If you are any relation to the Rotrucks/Rothrocks, Robys, Goldizens, Hardys, Beans, or Highs of West Virginia, please drop me a line. I'm trying to fill in the gaps in my family tree.
