Keep my name under the whiteout, and just let me miss you all the while...I know you would have left

About Me

I am a bassist and novelist who likes to dream of different places and different people. I'm a student of literature, science, people and anything further that might make the world a better place. I am a dreamer. I never stop thinking. I'm a hopeless romantic who looks like Andre the Giant. If you want to check out my band we're located at www.myspace.com/dawnoverzero or www.dawnoverzero.com. If you want to check out my writing, just send me a message.

Watching good movies that are written well and thought about, not just visualized and achieved for the profit they will produce in the box office (despite that I added Godzilla to the list of movies :P ) I like playing the bass guitar, because the feeling of bass through your chest and the laying down of foundation to good music is probably one of the most exhilirating experiences that exists. And finally I love writing, because its a chance to take what's in your mind and actually lay it out word after word upon a blank canvas.
