Today I like you to meet American Author
and Broadcaster Tom Fallwell. Having always had a fascination with fantasy
world-building, even from early in his life, Tom wanted to create his own world
filled with rich history. His Rangers of Laerean series does just that,
painting a panoramic landscape that is both magical and deadly, in which to set
the stories of his Rangers.
Tom lives in the greater Oklahoma City area, in America's homeland, and spends
much of his time with watching movies, when not writing his latest work.
Author name: Tom Fallwell
Genres: Fantasy, Sci-Fi
Country: USA
In the epic conclusion to the Shadows Trilogy of the Rangers of Laerean series, much lore from the ancient past is learned, and the history of the ancient magical creatures known as the Mythica is discovered, while the shadow of the great Dragon Spirit, Narwyrm, looms over them all.
Tom thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. Please tell me when did you first start writing? Was being a writer something you
always aspired to be?
I started writing professionally in 2014, after retiring from being a
software developer. I had always wanted to tell stories, they were always
floating around in my head, and after retiring I found the time to start
writing them down. Now I can’t stop.
What would you like to achieve as an Author?
While it would be great to be a best-selling author, or to have the success
that some do, my focus is simply on entertaining those the love the stories I
tell. If someone tells me they loved one of my stories, I feel like a complete
success.
What is your best advice based on your own experiences so far to other
Authors?
Write because you love it, not to gain riches and popularity. Your attitude
will be reflected in your work, so make sure you’re doing what you love. It
will show.
What genres do you read and review to support your fellow Authors?
I prefer Fantasy and Sci-Fi type stories the most, but also enjoy many other
genres. I have enjoyed Thrillers, Mysteries, Westerns and such, but Sci-Fi and
Fantasy are what I enjoy the most.
A quote by you or your Life motto?
Well, there’s an old saying that I truly believe is honest words of wisdom.
“What goes around, comes around.” If you want joy, give joy. If you want
happiness, give happiness. It’s a solid and factual rule of the universe, and I
know for a fact it works. The Bible calls it, “What you sow is what you reap.”
I believe that to be an absolute truth.
Thank you very much Tom. It was my pleasure to have
you on my blog. I hope many readers will discover your book. Keep up the great
work and all the best. Lots of love, Lily
