Biographie de Juan Pastorelli

When I was a young boy my father read fairy tales to me. I watched him read books every chance he got. As I grew up, I learned how precious and amazing books were. I quickly gravitated to fiction, specifically fantasy, and I have been in love with it ever since. When I was in sixth grade my English teacher saw how creative I was and recommended that I start writing stories. I have been writing ever since, on and off.
I became a DM for Dungeons and Dragons just to be able to continue writing fiction and fantasy in some form. Now that I am older, happily married, with three amazing boys that I hope will catch the same bug I got, I am finding that I want to have more of my stories out there than bottled up in here. I am the creator of the world of Dakaron, a fantasy world setting. I've been playing D&D for close to thirty years, primarily as a Dungeon Master.
For most of that time, I've designed and run my own world. This world has been my brainchild, grown from scraps of adventures to the huge bustling world it is now. A surprising amount of my stories originate or involve my world, either in past form or future form. Some stories also run parallel to Dakaron, but that explanation must wait for another time.
