Tee Morris
Tee Morris has been writing adventures set in far off worlds and far off lands ever since elementary school. Inspired by Terry Brooks’ “Shannara” series and numerous “Choose Your Own Adventure” books, he wrote some not-so-short short stories of his own, not aware that working on a typewriter while he was sick from school and, later on, working on a computer (which was much more quieter which meant more time to write at night) would pave a way for his writings.

Tee’s first published work was at James Madison University where he got his degree in Theatre and Mass Communications. In 1990, during Tee’s semester abroad in England, he covered London’s Poll Tax Riots for The Breeze, JMU’s newspaper. While it was an accomplishment, writing (either fiction or journalism) was just a fun departure from Theatre, his first love.

He’s always seen himself as an actor. He continues to enjoy the exciting and new experiences that his writing has introduced him to, however he does miss taking the stage. And as a writer, he tries finding the excuse to bring in this theatre training. He learned a great deal as an actor, and these experiences provided him with an advantage to writing dialog, setting moods and locations, and creating characters. That is what writing and acting are all about, telling a good story.

It was at the Maryland Renaissance Festival, while he learned lines and sharpened his improvisation abilities, where he would pick up a pen and punch the keys of his first Mac. Tee, after he wrote two one-acts, got invited to participate in their Writers’ Guild. At one of the biggest festivals of its kind on the East Coast as his source of research and inspiration, the character of Rafe Rafton and his debut novel began taking shape.

In his previous seasons at Maryland, he’d portrayed an eccentric inventor, an awkward town deputy, and a verbose actor. Now came the chance to play a swaggering and brash swashbuckler. Basically, this Tudor version of Han Solo. In creating such a privateer, Tee also took a few notes from Tommy Lee Jones in “Nate and Hayes” and Errol Flynn in “Captain Blood”.

After his first season playing Rafe, he knew this opportunity was presenting itself. He believed it would be for him as an actor or a stage combatant. He truly had no idea what adventure this character would take him on.

“Morevi”, written with Lisa Lee, began life in the most unlikely of places, an online chat room for Fantasy role players that combined various gaming rules and characters to interact between each other. It was her that Tee’s Rafe Rafton met with Lisa’s Askana Moldarin, and the two started work on this adventure that ended up becoming a top selling title for Dragon Moon Press. It was the first novel to be podcast in the year 2005. It was an EPPIE finalist for Best eBook Fantasy of 2003, and a Parsec Award Finalist for Best Podcast Novel in 2006.

When he’s not creating something on his Mac, he likes streaming video games early in the morning, Krav Maga, and putting together a new Spotify playlist to write by. His other hobbies include scotch and cigars, which he regards the same way as graphic novels and anime: he doesn’t know everything about them, but he knows what he likes. Tee likes Highland Park for scotch and Avo and Arturo Fuente for his smoke.

“The Case of the Singing Sword” is the first novel in the “Billibub Baddings Mystery” series and was released in 2004. Chicago in 1929. It’s the Era of Prohibition, where crime is running rampant in the streets and this city is divided into territories that serve as the ultimate prize. Somewhere in this Underworld of Chicago, this enchanted weapon holds the very key to ending The Gangland Wars.

In the wake of St. Valentine’s Day Massacre, just one is man enough to stand up against Al Capone, Billibub Baddings, a four-foot-one dwarf. Billi as his friends come to know him, is this working stiff dwarf in the all too human sized land of Chicago. Seems that a brood of orcs and one renegade warlock opened up a Portal of Oblivion in his home world and had planned on submerging his nine lands of Acryonis into this Age of Darkness.

Billi was able to manage to throw a monkey wrench into these lands, however not before he got caught in the pull of this portal. When he came to, he found he was in The Windy City’s heart during The Roaring Twenties. After he’d dealt with rock dragons, trolls, and goblins, Bugs Moran and Al Capone are just about as intimidating as choir boys. Billi sets himself up as this waist-high, tough talker, straight dealing detective, and his business looked bleak, until this dark eyed beauty crossed his threshold with the case that involved the mob, Billi’s past, and the upper crust of Chicago society.

Get ready for “The Lord of the Rings” if it were written by Mickey Spillane. Poking fun at Fantasy mainstays, the hard boiled detective, and even the legend of Chicago’s 1920s underworld.

“Legacy of Morevei” is the sequel to “Morevi” and was released in 2005. The adventures of England’s privateer captain and Naruihm’s warrior queen start yet again in “Legacy of Morevi. Life in Morevi is hardly a “happily ever after” for Rafe Rafton, privateer captain.

While he deals with the animosity from the Ladies of the Blood and from Ashtari, his own daughter, his one ally is Morevi’s First Queen, Askana Moldarin. However soon, the peace that they find with one another gets shattered in just a single night. Now, Morevi is facing a threat much greater than that of frontier rivals or political opponents.

While their realm stands close to a war that they cannot win, Rafe and Askana have to risk another Riftcrossing as they send their daughter, who is the future Second Queen of Morevi, into hiding. However the Great Game now stretches beyond the borders of Askana’s rule, and plans the downfall of House Moldarin get set into motion.
