About Me

“I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.”--Jack LondonI am very much a feminist as well as a humanist, and I strive for all, regardless of sex, orientation, race, or religion to be viewed and treated equally in society.I am a writer and feel a need to express myself in the same way most people need water and air. I have written two novels and am working (slowly) on a third as well as on a book on comparative religion and science. I am very interested in theoretical physics, specifically String Theory. I am always in search of truth, particularly regarding the nature of the cosmos and humanity's place in the universe.I read constantly and love to be challenged intellectually. I also love to travel and Paris is my favorite place on the planet this far (I now know my way around Paris better than I do Atlanta!), closely followed by Florence, Italy; Brasov, Romania; and Santorini, Greece.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Honest, loyal, and kind people who are true to themselves and wish to play a positive role in my life. Oh, and bizarre, interesting, creative people who make me question things I THINK I know.
How evil are you?

What New Battlestar Galactica character are you?

You scored as Lt. Kara Thrace (Starbuck)

You are the best damn Viper pilot in the fleet, so everyone else can just frack off. They need you, not the other way around. Maybe if you keep pushing people away they won't get close, because that is scary and it hurts. Oh yes, and anyone who has a problem with you being a woman needs to just get over it.
