BOOM! And then, there was write.

Hello, everyone! My name is Fabian! Being that I'm here, you can obviously tell I'm a writer of sorts. Personally, I like to write science fiction/horror stuff, but I'm willing to write almost anything with a creative touch. As far as genres I enjoy reading, I like to partake in the aforementioned sci-fi/horror business, though I also like reading mystery, suspense, and everything else in between. If I had to pick a few favorite authors, they would be Dean Koontz, Edgar Allen Poe, and Poppy Z. Brite. You can check out my tumblr here where I posted a couple of writings. As far as hobbies go, I love listening to music (Heavy metal 4 life! \m/ ), playing video games (FPS/RPG are my favorites), and watching the myriad creations available on YouTube.

As it is, I genuinely joined this site to find someone to share my works with, but I have no issue posting a bunch before my submissions become available for reading. After all, if I can't help the current generation of writers out, who's gonna help me out in return? Heh. I hope everyone has a great day!

Thanks for the welcomes, everyone!

BradCarsten -- I agree, writing exciting scenes with equally active music is awesome! Admittedly, I listen to a lot of stuff, from USPM to melodic death to blackened grindcore -- current favorites are early In Flames, Type O Negative, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Immortal, and just about anything by Anaal Nathrakh. Seriously, that last one is great when I need some random, yet controlled insanity. I also like certain albums from bands I'm not usually too hot on -- "Operation: Mindcrime" from Queensryche is too good, as well as "The Crimson Idol" from W.A.S.P. and "Character" from Dark Tranquillity, strangely enough. I also listen to a ton of underground stuff trying to find that hidden gem among the pile of quality music out there -- I've found bands called Dreamscapes of the Perverse, Double Dragon, Fall of Rauros, Ved Buens Ende, Demilich, Ripping Corpse, Cloudkicker and countless others that proved to be worth the search. (Seriously, BandCamp is awesome for this.)

Fortz -- Hey, there! Yeah, a couple of Koontz books can be really intense and anxiety-inducing -- "Intensity," funnily enough, is a really tense one where the danger is felt throughout most of the novel, and I remember "Dragon Tears" being more haunting than it had any right to. Still, they are good stuff, and his skill is indeed impressive.
