I've been writing my entire life. In fact I still have the first plays I wrote aged seven. 

I started my first book during college. Unfortunately it was during the days of typewriters and there was only one copy, which one day in a youthful fit of something, I threw in the fire. Thankfully these days I have multiple back ups of my stories, just in case.

The guy sitting on my shoulder is Kaos, or K for short. He's been doing this since he was a kitten, which he most certainly isn't any longer. He and his sister provide important writing support by ensuring I take plenty of breaks, to open doors and windows and cat food containers.

I tend to write the stories that come to mind, which is why I currently have books in three different genres, although the Hitchhiker books are the most fun to write. - Rodney Strong
