Hello, and welcome to Ree's official website! Author, Game Developer for Guild Wars, RPG & CCG designer and Queen of Fools, at your service.

Learsfool.com is up and running - which never means it's finished, of course. Learsfool.com will always be a project in motion. Feel free to stay and listen to the music, there are plenty of great songs in the songlist. Yes, I listen to Mandopop and Jpop. Yes, I listen to industrial and metal. And yes, I make my own mashups. You can listen to all of the above, and more, on the tracklist below.

Who am I? I'm a professional writer and novelist, particularly in the Sci-fi and Fantasy genres. Once revered as the Storyline Kami for the Legend of the Five Rings world, my more earthly game credits include writing for Dragonlance, Knights of the Silver Dragon, Star Trek, Vampire: the Masquerade, Edge of Midnight, and Deadlands. All in all, I've written over a hundred RPG texts and more novels than you can carry easily (trust me, I just moved, and I had to pack them!) as well as numerous short story anthologies and contributions to professional literary journals. I've even played all the RPGs I own, which leads to needing my own wiki just to keep my characters straight.

In addition to my literary work, I design and develop online games. I'm an avid MMORPG fan, and I play a ton of games. I read Ayn Rand as well as Anne McCaffrey, I'm a student of the Greek philosophers and I've completed my green belt in Aikido and Kenjutsu. I currently produce worlds for Arena.net as well as Wizards of the Coast, and I occasionally break keyboards. Whoops.

I completed my MA in English Literature with a bent for Shakespeare, and I'm currently pre-thesis on my PhD from UNC-Chapel Hill in North Carolina; I appear to be collecting multiple degrees in the hopes of one day making a paper airplane large enough to hang glide in the Swiss Alps. Right now, I live in Seattle and have the honor to be the Handmaiden to the Queen of all Cats. It's a difficult and dangerous job, but I'm willing to take a bullet for the rest of the human race.

It's a been a great road getting here, and things are only getting better. With new novels on the horizon, developing Guild Wars 2, and living the high life in Seattle, my world couldn't be more wonderful. Many thanks to the friends who've come with me, and also to those individuals who've tried to block my path; you've both made me stronger. Someday I'll tell the tale... but those are stories for another day.

Click on my name below to email me; I love hearing from fans and friends alike. It's a topsy-turvy world with dangerous curves, but that's life when you're a redheaded gamer chick. As Joey Ramone said, "We're the only band that kept the guts, and kept the excitement, and kept the belief, you know. We never sidetracked. I think we're the greatest rock 'n' roll band in the world."
