He wrote stories and game mastered RPGs for his friends, which led to the development of whole worlds and their inhabitants. After trying a few different careers, he returned to his first love and began writing and publishing science fiction and fantasy novels and role playing games. Paul enjoys fashion/cosplay design, prop making, video games, practicing martial arts/sword fighting, and watching Doctor Who, Once Upon a Time, or Clone Wars with his wife and kids.
