J.R.: Horror Movie Lover

I want my False Purpose Rundown counselling, and I WANT IT NOW!!!!!!!

About Me

I am a 37 year old bloke, married to a lovely tolerant woman with whom I have a beautiful daughter. Previously I have had issues with concentration, and finishing projects, but it seems I am over that, and passion has returned in spades.... only this time with a concentration span to match!!My second horror short "Aaaargh!!!! Zombies!!!! 2: Dead, by Dawn' will be filming soon, followed by a few other horror projects I wish to get started on.I am a shop manager in a newsagency by the sea *bliss* which means bikini customers and a lovely vista to have lunch by...I have a love of Diet Soft drinks, that has caused arthritis in my legs, so I now have to avoid, and those pre mixed girly alcohol drinks, especially the vodka ones,and I dig bourbon and coke and love me chicken, especially BBQ'ed. Thankfully, absinthe is still a big part of my life.
