Writing my career and what I like |
My main interests are fantasy, urban fantasy, and science fiction. I also read a lot of religion and mythology. I write primarily science fiction although I have conceived a fantasy world and a few stories have sprung from that. I've written a non-fiction article, 'Give them Pidgins' which appeared in Dragon Issue #247.
Essays by Brent Knowles
Here you will find some essays, ranging from school reports to role-playing advice articles. I am attempting to display some of my writing styles, as well as some of the more interesting things I've learned. No attempt has been made to correct stylistic mistakes in my writing. This will hopefully reveal some improvement on my part, in terms of writing skill.
