Hi there! I'm Des, and I'm an Urban Fantasy & Sci-fi (biology) author that LOVES vampires, if you couldn't already tell. I will typically only ever write in the fantasy genre, and usually I write several novels in a series. I like to twist things quite a bit in my stories, which means if there's a mythical creature out there with typical lore, I'll shred it and build it up into something that's mine. As a writer, I love focusing on character first and foremost. The character arc is extremely important to me, and I like writing either a redemption arc or a path down to evil. Admittedly my favorite kind of story is where an antihero rises up from their previous evil acts and becomes the hero. I simply love that so much! I really like the idea of "monsters with morals". Things like vampires, werewolves, dragons, spirits, dark fae, you name it, generally are seen as irredeemable and evil. I'm tired of the protagonists that can do no wrong! Therefore, every one of my characters will always have a dark side. We need strong protagonist couples too! I love strong female protagonists, don't get me wrong, and write them on a regular basis. But a couple working together side-by-side, each contributing equally, is important to me, and I like to depict that in my book. However, I build up relationships first before they are solidified. Otherwise, I play video games as a hobby and love roleplaying within them. Shocking, right? A writer that loves character building in a story setting! But, it's true. Finally, I love buying art for my characters. Seeing them visualized is something that makes me extremely happy. I post such art on my website if you're interested, with the proper credit of course.
