Willard H. Rowin

I’m a new fiction author (currently with the name Seikishi04 on Royal Road) who has read and listened to English-written and spoken stories for over two decades. Deeply passionate about Fantasy, Mystery, and Sci-fi works that can capture and enchant me – these are the genres I will focus on and would love to blend at times.

My inspirations and influences come mainly from British – but also from European, and in good part Japanese – storytelling in books, games, and some films, with a few American works I hold dear as well.

My passion for reading, listening and writing – as well as crafting role-play scenes, character backgrounds, personalities, and dialogue – will drive me. And so will my life experiences.

I intend to create stories that will leave a deep sense of wonder and emotional connection when read. Within them, heroes readers can cheer for, and villains we all love to hate, or be surprised by. Stories that flash in my mind, heart, and dreams. I want to share them with the world, and make it so that, when my books are closed, something lingers. Something that leaves us longing to return to those characters, to those settings. To weep, laugh, or smile with joy. Almost as if we had always been there, inside the pages, close to them, in those places.

I hope to be worthy of this endeavour. And if I'm not yet, I intend to become so – my fellow lovers of great tales.
