Avery K. Tingle, The Gamer Author

Thank you so much for twenty-one followers on this blog! Figured in light of this I’d open up a bit about myself, so here’s ten things about me.

• My name’s Avery. I was born and raised in the California Bay Area, and I’ve lived everywhere across the continental United States except the South.
• I’m proficient in boxing, Tae Kwon Do, Muay Thai and Wrestling (although I’m out of practice)
• I’m a survivor of child and domestic abuse. This is why I advocate so hard for mental health.
• I’m a lifelong gamer going all the way back to the Atari 2600. My favorite games (off the top of my head) are the original Final Fantasy 7, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, the Street Fighter series and Mass Effect. I love talking about games and believe in their power to bring the world together.
• I’m a huge Star Wars fan. I’m not a gatekeeper. You like what you like and that makes you a fan. May the Force Be With You.
• I’ve been writing since I was five years old and turned pro in 2012.
• I manage Attention Deficit Hyper Disorder, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Depression and Anger Management.
• I’m a Scorpio.
• I like country music a lot more than I’d like to admit.
• I’m a Christian. I am not a terrorist. God loves gay people. Who someone loves consensually is not a sin.

Thanks for reading. Hope to have your company for a long while.
