d. i. richardson
d. i. richardson was born in September 1995 in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada. He started writing seriously at the age of 18, posting his first works on the writing and reading website Wattpad. His writing has focused on love, loss, living, and learning. He prefers not to define himself in one genre as he has plans to explore and write many, ranging from YA/NA romance to horror/thriller, and cyberpunk.
Richardson began writing as early as he remembers. Even as a young child, words moved him in ways other art didn't. He wrote his first real piece of writing when he was nine, a short story for a Halloween writing assignment in his grade five class. Since then, he hasn't looked back. Writing has been what he's wanted to do. Through his early teenage years, he wrote short stories, attempted and failed many novels, wrote poems, and created two separate comic series with friends. All of this led to an eventual turning point where Richardson turned his focus on novel writing as a more serious medium.
