A Viking’s Home by C.J. Lingzero

I’m not quite sure the genre I fit into, but I find that where I write significantly influences the story’s mood and how it unfolds. I wrote my most recent book freehand, and while understanding and editing my hurried scribbles was a nightmare, I loved writing without a filter and letting the story tell itself. My writing process: I start with an idea and do little to no planning unless an idea comes to me that I must fit in somehow. I love exploring how different characters would uniquely handle situations, and I hope my characters feel real because of that. While perhaps not the best time to get into writing, given the artificial competition churning out hundreds of books a day, I have found something special in writing that I wish I had found years ago. I’m still learning to spin a yarn, but I hope my improvement is evident from book to book. These are my stories, my filtering of the world around me into fiction, and I hope you enjoy them.
