Lots of stuff added tonight, explaining the history

Debra Kraft: Debra Kraft is a lifelong writer of poetry, fantasy fiction, western fiction and just about anything else that involves painting, drawing, engineering or simply doodling with a pallet of words. She also plays with characters not of her own creation, posting the results online under the pseudonym of Freya Kendra or Freyakendra.

As a Wayne State University merit scholar in the early '80s, Debra Kraft studied under Detroit poet ML Liebler. In addition to writing, she has been building worlds to accommodate her fantasy stories for nearly three decades.

Early influences include Terry Brooks and Stephen R. Donaldson. On the subject of World Building, she credits her friend, lunch companion and mentor, Lee Carroll. A navigator in spirit as well as by trade, Lee was a long-time role-play gamer with degrees from Harvard, Cambridge and Tufts. Sadly, Lee passed in early 2012.
