Vaughan Taylor, the author behind the pen name of ‘Vashau Taslet’, is a hobbyist writer and Recent Bachelor of Information Technology Graduate from Hamilton, New Zealand. Looking to writing as a way to fill the gap between IT employment contracts.

A Warning to those avid readers of my work out there, “I write my pieces as much for myself as for you, so where my pieces don’t seem to make much sense, like some crucial detail is missing, this is impart due the fact I’m a first time writer, whose writing style is to start with an idea and then work backwards(write prequels) from there.
Therefore I can assure you, it will all come together in the end.”
