HEARTFIRE

When sorrow comes it comes not in single spies, but in battalions.

Myspace Backgrounds Wanting to know about me? Well, that has no simple solution. But to get you some boring facts, hear:I love Jesus. Laugh if you want, but I cannot deny my rock.I like to write, more than anything I love telling stories. There's a freedom in it that cannot be equalled by anyhting else; it's also an addiction. Once I get writing or telling a story, it's almost impossible for me to change gears until I get out what I need to. God help you if you interrupt that process. I love watching my characters come to life. Sometimes I think about them like they're real, that's when I know there's something there worthwhile.I grew up in Boston, so I am forever a Red Sox fan and forever convinced of the inherent depravity bestowed upon each individual associated with the Evil Empire's (NY Yankees) ball club.Now considering the first three installments of this blurb the fourth is only natural and inevitable: I love Stephen King. I find that he is the quintessential writer. He is refined, but common enough to be enjoyed by the masses; he is intelligent and spiritual; he is challenging and relaxing.I love Charlie Kaufman films. 1)Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind2)Adaptation 3)Human Nature 4)Being John Malkovich 5)Confessions of a Dangerous Mind.Toad the Wet Sprocket is the greatest band ever!Anyway, I think I have rambled on long enough. Goodbye.

"How did I become the smoking gun without ever loading anyone?"

As I was driving back to Dallas from Waco the other night I passed a factory that evoked a a very potent memory. A memory that I had not thought of for a very long time. It was a memory of a drive bac...

Writer’s Block

You might think you know what writer's block is or you might not; let me articulate. When a writer begins writing there is a load of information that needs to be put to paper and the author's finger n...
