My series is called: Legends of the Four Races. I'm calling it the first Interlocking Matrix of nine novels (the first six of which are available). Each book is a standalone story AND part of two separate trilogies.

After the thief, Halia, discovers a crystal sphere magically protected in a crumbling castle, she meets three others with spheres of their own. Arwold, the knight, bears one on the hilt of his sword. The sorcerer, Ahriman, who has owned his sphere for some time, enlists the warrior, Xarun, to steal another one from the peaceful Arboreals. With the help of an elementalist and his apprentices, the four set off on a quest to discover the fifth and final sphere. Along the way, they must battle demons, dragons, and sometimes one another. And they have no idea what the spheres have planned for them at the end of the journey.

The thief Senfra does not care about anyone or anything except a good night at the pub, certainly not about the people and animals rumored to be disappearing from the Cold Sea coast. But when Senfra’s men rebel and steal his fortune, he finds himself on the Cursed Island, surrounded by dangerous, crossbreed creatures. Senfra’s only ally is Toth, a necromancer reviled by society, and his army of undead skeletons. Together, they must face a master transmuter who has been combining animals and humans to create his own army of unearthly abominations.

What is your name, where were you born and where do you live now?

Did you always want to be a writer? If not what did you want to be?
I didn't realize that I enjoyed writing so much until about ten years ago. I had always been a fan of fantasy and science fiction, but throughout my school years, I was completely focused on math and science. At MIT, I received dual degrees in Computer Science and Electrical Engineering. Every teacher that I had in high school and college would always write, "expand this" or "write more", on every paper I wrote. I never dreamed that I'd be able to write an entire novel. Ten years ago when I began my current job, I was on a train for 3 hours per day commuting to New York. With an idea for a story that was based upon a Dungeons & Dragons campaign that I created as a teenager, I decided to use my time writing. As it turns out, I love writing!

Do you work another job as well as your writing work?
I have a full time job as a computer programmer for a small consulting company based in New York. We primarily offer cost savings in the Market Data departments for many of the largest banks in the world.
Who is your publisher? or do you self publish?
