Douglas was born on Nov 28th, 1971 . He got to live many different places while growing up, courtesy of the assignments the US Army offered to his father. Too quiet and too shy for too long, there was always dreams of other worlds and places…and the desire to write about them. He got into fantasy role-playing games in his mid-teens. The first such games played on a computer were offered by a Commodore 64. Often Douglas and his brother would create their own tabletop fantasy games and rules as well, all using very basic 6-sided die. Eventually, they also got into Dungeons and Dragons*. As MMORPGs (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games) appeared, he tried a hand at several of them and made several new friends across the internet. To this day he has friends whom he meets in tabletop role-playing games, as well as online adventures. Many of his characters evolved in games, and each developed their own personality. Inheritance
of a Sword and a Path is the second book he has written, though the
first he has had published. This novel is the start of The Earthrin
Stones trilogy. It is set in the fantasy world of Dhea Loral...a
world he created for tabletop role-playing. He continues to work at
finishing the rest of the trilogy so that he might start on many of the
other storylines buzzing around in his head.
