Growing up, I could not figure out what I wanted to be. I knew what I liked (music, stories, art, games, movies, tech), but I couldn't figure out how to translate all of those into a career. Eventually I realised that I can consolidate everything into game production, but something was missing...

I didn't specifically want to work in game production. What I'm striving towards in games, I can also get in movies, shows, podcasts and other multimedia formats. I was also super into the worldbuilding of franchises like Marvel, DC, W40K, FNAF, etc. That's when it clicked: I want to be an author.

I've always thought being an author only applied to writing novels (which I'd like to do though not exclusively), but it can be more than that. Being an author is being the creator of an original work, whether it's textual, visual, audial, etc. I want, and have always wanted, to be an author.
