🎯 Where Should I Start?
ⓘ About Philip C. Quaintrell
Philip has always been a fantasy and science fiction fan, but began to find himself feeling frustrated while reading books, wanting to dive into the writing more to tweak some of the storylines and the characters. So he decided he would write his first novel as a hobby so that he could escape from nursing and found himself getting swept away and into the world that he had created. To this day, he even talks about how the characters will tell him what they will do next, rather than the other way around. With this first book written, and a good number of rejected agency submissions already under his belt, he figured he would throw himself in right at the deep end and publish it himself.
