I am fulfilling my destiny, writing words and creating worlds. Anything else I do in my life pales in comparison.
I am a writer of fiction and poetry. I'm currently working on my first novel which should be completed sometime in 2008. I will release further details about the book once it is finished. Check out my blog for excerpts from the novel.
I have great disdain for people who judge too quickly. Don't assume you know me by how I look, what I wear, or the music I listen to. If you would like to get to know me on a more personal level, I would suggest we go for drinks and chat.
I am somewhat of a recluse, thoroughly enjoying my solitude, something that is ultimately necessary both for my writing and my sanity, but I am always up for going to a good club, bar, museum, or movie. Coffee shops, bookstores, or the combination of the two are also favorite spots of mine. On a rare occassion, I also enjoy a trip to the park.
My friends are a very important part of my life. I have a handful that I trust implicitly and who mean a great deal to me. They have been in my life for a long time and they always will be, nothing will change that. The worst thing anyone can do is try to get between us or try to make me choose who I'm friends with.
I believe that anything worth having or achieving cannot come without discipline, motivation, confidence and self-sacrifice. Luck plays no part in anything of real, true value or accomplishment.

"What you need to know about the past is that no matter what has happened, it has all worked together to bring you to this very moment. And this is the moment you can choose to make everything new. Right now." ~Author Unknown
"One cannot and must not try to erase the past merely because it does not fit the present." ~Golda Meir"I was a man who thrived on solitude; without it I was like another man without food or water. Each day without solitude weakened me. I took no pride in my solitude; but I was dependent on it. The darkness of the room was like sunlight to me."
