Let the stories begin
My name is Thomas J Maine, and at long last, I'm saying hello. With my novel releasing in 18 days, this really is quite late, but I've never been the type of person to put myself out there online.
My novel is called Imperfect Creatures, and it releases on November 8. It's a book I began writing a long time ago, and by now I am so exited for it's release. There's a lot of things that happened while making this book, half of which is worth sharing. If I thought it through a little more, I'd have started this years ago and updated you as things happened. What an adventure it has been, and how I would have enjoyed to share it. Alas, we are only starting it now.
As for me, I'm an Aussie, with a major in creative writing (a useless investment of time, to be sure), and psychology. I've written a thesis on behavioural psychology, and can honestly say that creative writing, constructing narratives and presenting characters, if far more to my tastes and personality. My views of fiction are perhaps a little extreme in their honesty. If this will make my books good or bad, only time will tell. But I will tell these stories. Not for me. For my characters. They have spent so long being alive, that there is no greater crime I could commit than to not let them exist.
There are so many thoughts in my head, so many things to discuss. From the world of writing to the world of publishing (two separate worlds, have no doubt). And of course, there is reading; books that have caught my eye. Life is a wonderful box of surprises, miseries, and joys. There is so much to share, and I hope you will stay to see it.
You can find me on Instagram, so check me out there. There's a mailing list that has now been started. And of course, my book is available for pre-order.
