    William Elliot

    An over-analyser with a creative side, by day I solve problems and manage stuff. When I escape, I cross over into the fantasy genre, both as reader and writer. I take inspiration from everything I experience and like to like keep my readers guessing right up to the end. The more brutal the twist the better.
