About

Ren grew up training for adrenaline-fueled adventure, dabbling in martial arts, rock climbing, archery, snowboarding, horseback riding, scuba diving, and backcountry hiking. Now, a few injuries and aching joints later, you're more likely to find Ren curled up with a mug of tea and a good book, or binge-watching the latest shows, adventuring vicariously through fictional characters while enjoying the perks of plot armor.

Whether writing them or reading them, Ren gravitates toward heroic quests, epic space battles, twisty prophecies, tales of post-apocalyptic survival, alternate realities, alien planets, morally grey heroes, and campy, comedic space romps: fictional, fantastical worlds where everything's larger than life and imbued with a glimmer of magic.

Ren has worked professionally as a tutor, ghostwriter, developmental editor, and screenwriter. Whenever not crafting novels or writing scripts, Ren daydreams about forging impractically-elaborate fantasy weapons, especially swords.
