ORIGIN

A writing shadow has been with me my entire life. Through multiple countries, continents, and professions. Parallel to my life path, but only converging when I recently decided I loved the slog of creating vast, yet detailed storyworlds far more than anything else. My own experiences fuel my writing. Pugilist arts to an MBA in International Business. Rugby, American football to brewing cider and baking. Starting a small export business in Nepal to living on a pocket-trawler in Southeast Alaska… and so much more. Good, bad, ugly, beautiful, but real.

Iain Richmond's storyworlds sit upon foundations built from his experiences, then he turns, twists, and reimagines them with new lands, worlds, and species.’

I offer only the 'writer’s promise;' My words are my own. My story-worlds are built upon them.
