Poetry
I took my first poetry class when I was in my second semester of university. Then I took a long break, before writing poetry for a girlfriend. Later, I took up a personal challenge where I attempted to write a poem every day for ninety days. Nowadays, I write four poems a week. In 2018 I published my first poetry book (and book) while living in Milanowik Poland. The book is called “Treasures of life”. The most recent work was released in April 2024 and is a collection of 104 poems based on experiences of the night: “Nightmares, Dreams and Hallucinations”.
Fantasy
I took on my first fantasy project in 2016. The first one was a World of Warcraft fan fiction story called “Tales of Arthas”. I worked on it for four years and eventually published it as an audio book on the internet archive website. Later I started another story as a “WoW Fan Fic”, but then changed it to my own story. I had to replace all the places, characters, and races with my own. This project was called “The Legend of Trollbanus” and in September 2020 I released it as my first fantasy novel using the same name.
English ESL teaching
I also did a lot of writing theory as well as grading/critiquing as an ESL English teacher. This is to say an English teacher who teaches students whose first language is not English. Locations I have taught: Turkey, Poland, Saudi Arabia, New York, and China.
Others
I wrote several play-scripts at the university as well as screen plays. Two of the plays were submitted to “Famous for Fifteen” festivals at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks. One of them was also submitted to three theatre companies, in hopes of being produced.
