Paul R Monarch
Fantasy Novelist and Short Story Writer (Pronouns: Any/Any)
About
I am an adult fantasy writer from what is now called Minnesota. I typically write dark and grimdark fantasy, but now and then I break away from fantasy altogether. Case in point, you can find my latest body horror short story, My Body, available for free on this website in the links provided. The Farnen is more reminiscent of my typical style and takes place in the fantasy world where most of my stories do.
In my spare time, I practice Nishioryu Aikitoho Iaido, a Japanese sword martial art based in Aikido. I also play Irish mandolin, study bushcraft and ancestral skills, and spend time with my dog.
Mostly, I write.
