Who am I? This is the �real� story - the long and short of it. I disappear as the story begins - words chasing ideas. It has been eight years of manic impressions, the ink and the void. Yet I'm not the true author of fate here. The characters create their own lives. They impel me to give them voice. They turn my mind to their tasks. It's their hopes and dreams my work embodies� I write until there is only me. The story has ended, a world transcribed. My journey ends here with the tiniest of marks � the full stop. Daniel Williamson lives in Dunedin, New Zealand with his wife, artist Kate Downey. They share a mutual passion for the arts, pets and other natural wonders. He is currently… working on the next fantasy in the Magician, Man and Beast trilogy: Psychic Odyssey.
