Re: Ask the Author

Hi, Matt,

Great to see you here again. Tips for fantasy writing - that's really difficult, as everyone likes different things. My best tip is to write the sort of story that you enjoy reading. If you like reading it when it's finished, then there's a good chance that others will too.

Names I get from all over the place. My latest source is a book of 80 000 baby names, but I've utilised maps, names of people I've met, brand names from foreign countries ... the list is pretty long.

By all means email me your prologue. I'll do my best to give you a bit of feedback.

Mark
