Hello, I'm Alexander, and I'm (like many of you) working on my author platform. As it stands, I am writing a novel (early stages), but also working on short stories to both build a rudimentary audiance as well as to practice the basics more frequently while waiting for such stuff as beta reader feedback (basics such as character creation, outlining, scene establishment and such). Eventually, I plan to post those short stories as I work on my debut novel. The general genres are horror and suspense, but dark fantasy may be around the corner.
