I read a lot of fantasy. I was just thinking about how I got into fantasy. Some 30 years ago in my early high school years I was reading Stephen King. I read Tommyknockers and Needful Things, then I stumbled across The Eyes of the Dragon and LOVED it. While reading it, my uncle bought me the first book in the Dragon King trilogy by Stephen R. Law Lawhead which I devoured and then followed it with his Pendragon Cycle. Taliesin (Pendragon book 1) was the first books that really evoked an emotional response from me. And I've been hooked on the genre ever sense.

Read the Hobbit when I was 10 and never looked back.
My best friend brought a “dirty” book to class when I was 14. Possessive vampire stuff. 18 years later I’m writing dark fantasy/romance as well as reading it.
