Steven Paul Watson is many things: a writer, artist, amateur photographer, and avid outdoorsman as well as an all-around geek. His love of writing includes soul-chilling science fiction, fantasy, and all things supernatural/horror. But his true passion is steampunk/alternate reality. Attending more than a handful of conventions a year, he stays close to his geeky roots. When out in nature, Steven enjoys running multiple 5ks a year and hiking the hills near his home. There is no better way stroke one’s imagination than being outdoors in the wilderness having real adventures that feed the ones he puts on page.
