Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't

About Me

I'm a storytelling/artistic junkie. I'm not happy without it. I love stories that make you feel, make you think or make you get up off your ass and do something. I've worked for DC and Marvel on books such as Aquaman, Batman, Detective Comics, Dr Fate, Hawkman, JSA, NIghtwing and The Thing.

My Interests

Direction

I'd like to meet:

The man who created Tetris.....so I can slap him for wasting sooo much of my time.

Music:

The White Stripes, Rob Zombie, Jane's Addiction, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Cake, Deadboy and the Elephantmen, Dax Riggs, The Black Keys, Kings of Leon, Eminem, Racontours, Mike Doughty, Soul Coughing, Counting Crows....I could go on and on....

Movies:

Too many to mention....and some I'd rather not.

Television:

I only watch a couple and I don't want to name them because they cancel the shows I like.I think it's a conspiracy.

Books:

My all-time fav is Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls, books by John Irving, The Mindhunter series of John Douglas, Richard Marcinko, Flags of Our Fathers, Charlie Wilson's War, Dennis Lahane's A Drink Before the War and Mystic River, The Time Traveller's Wife(yes, it's a romance novel....but I like it), Chris Golden, Tom Sniegoski, Brad Meltzer and most biographies and/or books on historical events.And don't even get me started on comics and graphic novels.

Heroes:

The Thing, Hawkman, Dr Fate, Jay Garrick Flash, Alan Scott Green Lantern, Stargirl, Dr Midnight, Mr Terrific, Wildcat, Captain Marvel, Powergirl, Jakeem Thunder, Hourman, Hawkgirl, Sandman, Aquaman, Batman and Nightwing so far........
