New people on the f-list, I note, and do feel free to introduce yourselves, re-introduce yourselves, or simply lurk, as you wish.

This LJ is a mix of writing, witchcraft, cats, horses and dogs, occasional rants, gardening, digital radio, and weird shit. My life, in short.

You're most welcome.

(Sorry to take so long to reply to this!)

The lack of comedy is usually a deliberate choice in that I tend to be addressing fairly serious themes (some writers - Iain Banks, for instance - can do both at the same time but it doesn't quite fit with my style of writing). The Chen books are written in a way that is closer to (I think!) my basic personality - I'm not a particularly sombre person!

Sometimes things do creep in - I intended some of BANNER OF SOULS to be amusing, ditto EMPIRE OF BONES, and this prompted some reviewers to wonder whether I realised I was being funny (!). I have quite a dry, British sense of humour sometimes and I think this throws people.
