As the token female here, I should begin by
saying: these boys have nothing on us ladies, am I right ladies, or am I
right? Actually, I’m all about
everyone. The more writers, the more
interesting the stories that we can create and for that to happen, we need to
be all inclusive. Okay, so that’s my
soapbox, which I love dearly, but I’ll step down from it.
First off, I’ll just say hello and introduce myself. I’m E. Logan and yes, that’s a penname to keep my writing self separate from my actor/dancer self. Plus, I’m very proud of where I came up with the name and maybe that’s a blog post for another time, ‘cause I can be long winded.
I’m an avid reader of anything fiction, usually with some sort of fantastical element. A Great and Terrible Beauty? Loved it. Hunger Games? Jumped on that bandwagon before it was a wagon. Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, Pride & Prejudice, Narnia, Blue Girl (by de Lint… read it. It’s fantastic.), anything dystopian, historically based (there’s a great series of novels by Michelle Moran), and…well, there’s a list that’s too long to list properly. Oh, yes, and Divergent.
I have written most of my life though I’ve only completed one novel to date and it is in a major rewrite/editing process with another novel half way finished because I smacked into a writing wall, so I am beginning another with renewed vigor. Much of what I have written to date has been poetry and I love it. It is underappreciated by the general public. Now let’s see if I can translate all of that poetic beauty into a structured story. It may or may not work out, but that’s art.
I’m also of the ‘nerd’ variety. Seriously, I can talk to you about Sherlock, comics, mythology, history, costumes, Walking Dead, Doctor Who (isn’t Twelve charming in that old-cranky-grandpa way?) and a couple dozen other things. It’s my special superpower…
That and pulling a River Tam monologue on you.
