With nearly a hundred published short stories, blogs, video scripts, and four novels to his credit, Paul is a talented, established writer in the genre of young adult fiction and horror. He also still has aspirations for a screenwriting career, with a screenplay already making the Hollywood circuit, and another two currently being written. His favorite type of story centers around a main hero or heroine, thrown into a world of chaos, and forced to deal with it, and rise above it to seek their destinies – or most Japanese anime these days.

Paul loves include movies, animation, books, music, games (especially chess), computers, and the occasional 1970s TV shows, when the sitcom entered its experimental stage. He lives by the notion that the average human being will meet at least 5,000 close people before they are 40.
