Introductions

I've always had a problem with introductions, in every aspect of my life.

I'm not much of a social person, so when it comes time to talk about myself, I have trouble. I tend to shy away from selling myself because I'm usually worried that I'm going to sound like an over confident jack ass or under sell myself and not be taken seriously again.

So, I will say this

My name is not, Rivyn Daniel.

My real one is in fact a really boring name that I generally hate with a passion for a number of reasons that are not important.

What is important, is that I am a writer.

What do I write?

Well I originally started off writing Fanfictions while I developed my craft over the years. As for my own, publishable stuff however, I love writing Fantasy, Science Fictional, the Paranormal/Supernatural, Adventure Thrillers and Crime Thrillers. I have dozens of stories in the works, and very few of them are progressing because I have trouble focusing entirely on one story for very long before my brain calls me off to another one.

I am also an artist...... sort of.... an amatuer artist would be more precise.

I am formerly trained in traditional painting and sculpture work and I have been drawing my whole life. I have my own little art studio all set up, though at the time of this post it is in a desperate need of tidy up.

By now you might be wondering what the purpose of this Blog is.

Well, its quite simple really.

This blog will be a place for me to write up my thoughts concerning writing, and I will be sharing my thoughts and opinions on story writing in general; from character development, to outlining, to world building. I don't claim to be an expert in these fields however; there are a number of how to write books by authors that have that covered, that are dead certain they know the exact formula that everyone should follow to be successful....... but I think they're full of shit. Yes there is some useful hints throughout said books, but in general, everyone is different and no one way works for everyone.

So I will be sharing my views and who knows, maybe it will shake something loose with someone that happens to read it.

For the most part though this Blog is for me, something to unwind my brain on.

But we shall see where it goes........

Welcome......... to My Journey............
