DAVE SNELL

I'm Dave, never David.

I'm a Customer Service Assistant at the Co-operative and was once in training to become an Estate Agent. We don't talk about that.

I've been writing for most of my life, from blogs about my dog and my son, to long-winded Facebook statuses, to half-finished novels, but Dragons is truly my life's work, so it's fitting that it is the first one that I bring to publication.

Nine years in the writing, I've lost it completely to a virus, rewritten it, lost it again to a cup of coffee spilled on a laptop, had it magically retrieved, decided that I hated it while editing, and rewritten it again from scratch. Don't worry, I've finally learned how to back it up, and Book Two should come along much sooner than nine years from now.

In the future you can expect several more Dragons of Lovana novels from me, a number of other books in the Fantasy genre, and my name to appear as Editor on a few more.

I've immersed myself in Fantasy, and I'm here to stay.
