I’m Shaun Norton. I live in Melbourne, Australia.

I am working on a fantasy novel under a pen name, which is a secret. I have a few reasons for doing so:

• Shaun Norton can be spelled 15 different ways.
• I don’t like pronouncing the W sound in Shaun, nor the R sound in Norton.
• The late Andre Norton was a popular fantasy author (this was one of her pen names).
• There are quite a few Shaun Nortons out there.
• One of these Shaun Nortons is involved in videogame and a sci-fi podcast.
• I can embrace the identity, so when I sit down to write, I take it more seriously.
• I am used to adopting aliases from my gaming background.
• I prefer some anonymity and privacy.

I rarely use Facebook. You can find me @shaunnox.
