In 2009, I read the first four books of A Song of Ice and Fire. In 2011, I read a Dance with Dragons. For many sad years thereafter, I toiled in the real world with nary a visit to the Seven Kingdoms. One fine day, some heroic podcasters saved me from my dreary fate. I stumbled upon Radio Westeros, The History of Westeros, Game of Owns, and the Mythical Astronomy of Ice and Fire. Eventually, I gave in and joined #twitteros.
And now I find myself here. Because folks demand proof for my crazy ideas and there just isn’t enough space on Twitter. Also, writing about magic entertains me.
By day, I am a lawyer and political consultant. So, don’t be surprised when I write things like “marshal my evidence” or “motive and opportunity.” I am a huge nerd.
I started this page to share In the Shadow of the Titan, my work-in-progress essay about the magic of the Faceless Men. Check out the introduction here.
