- Tell me more about you. Born in 1962. Married, three children, and a family doctor for ten years. I left medical practice in 2000. My spouse makes lots of money; I work at home writing and as a stay-at-home-parent: we both follow our dreams. I’m an avid PC gamer, mostly turn-based strategy and MMORPG games. My favorite time sinks right now are World of Warcraft and Diablo 2. I’m an organic gardener and have a dislike for unnatural chemicals, my fondness for Diet Coke notwithstanding.
- What do you write? Novels. I’ve written science fiction, fantasy and thrillers. I also write microfiction as a hobby.
- What have you published? I ran a patient education website from 2000-2004, and during that time was a (paid) writer and health editor for a now-defunct online subscription business website. A health education pamphlet and several patient education articles with my real name on them are circulating around the internet. I have some Star Wars Galaxies and World of Warcraft fanfiction out there. I run a writers’ group on deviantART called Fifty Word Fiction and had one story accepted at 55 Fiction. As far as paid fiction, nothing as yet, but I’ll keep you posted.
- Do you have pets? I raise angora rabbits. I also have a pond out front with koi and several toads that like the skimmer.
- Would you read my story? No. I have enough work to do in the critique groups I belong to. Get your own group.
- Is it okay to leave anonymous comments? Leave a first name so I have some idea who’s talking. You don’t have to log in or register to comment but your IP is recorded. Also, this is my place. I can delete any comment I want. You don’t like it, don’t post.
- Is it okay to leave a comment on an old post? Sure. I get notified of all comments.
- Is it okay to email you? Sure. I retain the right to post any email sent to me. You don’t like it, don’t email me.
- Is it okay to take pages from here and post them on my site? No. That is copyright violation.
- Is PL Logan your real name? It’s a pen name. My real name is something else.
- Why are you using a pen name? It’s the name I publish fiction under. My real last name is very long and many people have trouble spelling and pronouncing it.
- So what do I call you? There was this old commercial … you can call me Pat.
- Why the title? I was in a discussion on some forum (probably FM) about getting published and it just popped out of my fingertips onto the post. I thought, ‘that would make a great title for a blog’.
- Where did you get your header picture? From here. Unfortunately, when I went to this person’s site to notify them, it said the site no longer existed. If that’s your picture, thank you for providing it. (go here if you wish to see the license for using this work)
- How about your avatar? I got that from here.
Disclosure statement: Links to book and product titles (usually) go to Amazon.com or HollyLisle.com. I make a small amount of money if you buy using those links, which support my reading habit.
