Introduction to myself and writing

Wednesday May 28th
Hey-o all, I'm new to blogging and thought I'd start with just an intro. I'm R.R Virdi, and aspiring author and currently the author of Grave Beginnings, a paranormal investigator novel set in NY. I've been writing now for about six years and have one published fiction work. Writing is life to me, about six years ago I was depressed and wanted to commit suicide, writing saved me from that and now its a compulsion. I in fact, well, there's no way for me to stop it. I can't turn off the idea switch as it were, what cemented my passion for writing was actually meeting my hero Jim Butcher at Tysons Corner Mall. After that, it just was, I didn't really have a choice, and it's the best decision I've made. Yes it's hard being an indie, very little way in terms of marketing support and having my name known but it's part of the hustle.

I grew up a fan of science fiction and fantasy however the genre I love the most is the paranormal, so that's what I write. I'm very new to blogging and the marketing aspect of writing, I'm an author, not necessarily a salesman, although it seems I now have to be one.

Blarg.

More about me, because I am clearly a narcissist. I'm an avid gamer, reader (duh) my fav authors are Jim Butcher, George RR Martin, Robert Jordan, Alexey Pehov, old RA Salvatore before he started killing everyone off in the Drizzit books. Im a fitness freak and martial arts nut, i love building restoring and modifying cars, and also love disregarding grammar the further i descend in the post as you mightve noticed. WHY? Because, its the internet, theres not place for that here!!!

So yeah, a bit about me, maybe ill add more later tonight about why im so deadset and why ill never quit, idk, like i said, new to this. so meh!
