I grew up on Dragonlance and probably spent way too much time playing role-playing games. Then came the video games. But then, Nintendo was life in Toronto of '86. As a matter of fact, much of my youth could be considered "wasted" exploring escapism of one form or another.
Now I'm a full-time author living in British Columbia, Canada. I have a wife who taught me what it means to love someone unconditionally. Buddha, my grumpy but rumpled-with-love cat, likes to keep watch from a Lego castle near my desk. (Update: said Lego castle has long been dismantled. Now she basks under a sun lamp).
I suppose my favorite sagas are Harry Potter, Ender's Game, Lord of the Rings, Narnia, and Game of Thrones. I also love true-life survival tales like Into Thin Air, Shadowdivers, and Perfect Storm. As for movies, I regularly re-watch Bladerunner, Star Wars, Highlander, Aliens, Limitless, Edge of Tomorrow, Interstellar, Lost in Translation, and Margin Call.
But I've been most inspired by Harry Potter. Seriously, because if it hadn't been for HP, I'd never have dared. I simply stood on the shoulders of a giant. Thank you for writing that story, Joanne Rowling, it was extremely re-readable. I can only hope to capture my readers' imagination as you have captured mine.
When I was a kid, I dreamed I could spread my arms as wings, jump off the ground, and fly. My head was in the clouds (and in many ways, still is). It would be fair to say that my love of fantasy began then, steadily refined by movies, video games, and cozy books.
As for me, I enjoy talking to my readers, so if you read one of my books, you're welcome to shoot me an email at severbronny@gmail.com. Throw me a question, comment, or just say hello.
I blog at severbronny.com when the mood strikes me, and I'm on social media now and then. I don't publish too often, but you can subscribe to my newsletter to receive a notification when I do release new work (newsletter signup is at severbronny.com/contact).
(I was also a musician at one time, having released three albums with my industrial-rock band Tribal Machine.)
When all is said and done, I know how fortunate I am to be a full-time author. I think about it often--especially when I recall what it was like working the grind. Thus I humbly thank each and every reader for supporting my work.

Can you please give us an estimate on how long the editing will take because I am dieing to read the next book. And than you for your hard work.😀
Hopefully out in July? Perhaps on the tenth? Best bday gift ever?
There will be multiple editing rounds, and the book is large (230,000 words right now), so it’s going to come down to the wire. Launch is still expected in December though :)
Cant wait. Really think it is going to be a good book, especially since I have loved your last ones . Keep up the good work
I can’t wait either.
Thank you very much! Editing of the book resumes today, and it’s coming along very nicely :)
I am SOOO excited… can’t wait. Will take the day off of work when I find out the release date haha.. thank you for hard work and communicating with us, your avid readers
My pleasure, Mason, and thank you for reading :)
Any hints on a title? :)
You’ve got a lot to live up to with all of your other titles being amazing and all!!!
No hints yet, and yes, the pressure is on, hehe :)
Looking forward to what’s next. Keep up the good work!
Thank you!
I read your notes from the picture and I can’t believe that is going to happen omg!
Hehe ;)
I can’t see it on my phone. When I get home I will pull this up instantly on my PC and zoom max and I WILL read it. 🤣
Hopefully it won’t spoil the plot for you =P
(From my estimation, it shouldn’t)
OP here. I just wanted to see who I could get to double take on the notes. I couldn’t actually read em.
Okay that made me laugh. Sneaky, sneaky! And there I was thinking, “Wait, I thought I made sure they weren’t readable in the first place”
Ahhhh can’t wait!!
Same here :)
Just finishing rereading Fury of a Rising Dragon today, then will dive into editing the third book.
The beginning of the book when Augum takes out the assassin like he’s the grandson of Anna Atticus Stone!

Good choice, Michael! Augum has come a long way. Wait till you see him fill out those shoes in book 3…
