VP Profile #2: Brandie Tarvin

[cathschaffstump]

Continuing the VP XIII series of profiles, Brandie Tarvin has graciously agreed to answer some questions. Brandie writes broadly in the areas of original fiction, media tie-in work, and database administration.

Welcome to the Tamago, Brandie! And thanks for the interview!

Tamago: How did you get started writing?

Brandie: I blame my father. He wrote in his spare time, and told so many wonderful horror stories, that I wanted to be just like him. Once I started writing, I just couldn't stop.

Tamago: What would you consider your "genre," if any?

Brandie: I'm willing to write almost anything. Fantasy comes easiest, though.

Tamago: You are a professional writer who publishes novels in existing media universes. How did you enter that profession?

Brandie: I wrote fan-fiction when I was in high school and college. Due to a friend's prodding, I went searching for a publisher. I couldn't get my fanfic published, but I impressed an editor so much that he invited me to write a short story for a Transformers anthology.
