Biography

“The greatest part of a writer’s time is spent in reading, in order to write; a man will turn over half a library to make one book.”
—Samuel Johnson

What's up! I'm Avan, a born and raised bookworm and creative writer.

I've always had a burning passion for writing, starting in my early years of primary school writing mostly fan-fic for fun with friends. This barely part-time hobby eventually graduated to a lifelong ambition, through reading countless books as a child through to the present day, I still find myself adoring the act of getting lost in a good book and seeing characters develop.

Throughout my academic life, my teachers and tutors have praised my ability to create compelling stories, though this praise didn't motivate me nearly as much as the act of writing did. I find nothing more satisfying than developing a story, seeing the plot develop as I put thoughts into text. It's magical.

I'd consider myself a creative person, though I don't mean to brag! I've been studying and practicing arts since I was a child, it's just what I grew up doing. Drawing, writing, creating poetry (though poetry certainly isn't my strong point), playing music, and making cringe-inducing home movies with my friends. Hell on the weekends I play in a band, I'm pretty good on the bass. Though I'd consider each of these enjoyable hobbies, none of them bring me nearly as much enjoyment as writing. My main passion is fiction, the ability to create characters that I find inspirational -or evil- is incredible. Though I also thoroughly enjoy researching topics and writing non-fiction works too!

Here are some of the niches that I am best with:

FICTION
- Dystopian & Apocalyptical
- Fantasy & Urban Fantasy
- Horror
- Thriller
- Cyberpunk
- Romance
- Mystery
- Science fiction
- Comedy
- Teen
- Young adult
- Crime

NON FICTION
- Historical
- Biographies
- Philosophical
- Self-help
- Humor
- Guides
- Computing
- Technology

Hopefully, I can bring a fresh style and creativity to your next project!

Non-Fiction, Biography & Memoir, History, Humor & Entertainment, Self Help, Comedy

Claustrophobia

Sanguine was not having a good day. He'd been hired to kill a man, as he so often was. The job was meant to be quick and easy, taking no more than 20 seconds followed by a quick dash out the door. He'd been hoping to get it over with quickly so that he would have a chance to explore Hong Kong properly without the shroud of work looming over him. The man he'd been hired to kill was Liang Zhao. He knew very little about the man, only concerning himself with his daily schedule. He didn't know if the man deserved to die, or what he got caught up in, but in Sanguine's line of work asking s...
