About Me

There's this time of night, around 4 a.m. that just beckons to some of us. The writers, the storytellers. I don't have a way to describe it. The closest I can get is by alikening it to waking up thirsty. A dry mouth and a shaken consciousness, a vivid feeling of need. That's what it feels like at four a.m., pen in hand, not even close to as many words written as wanted, not nearly enough night left to get them all out.

My Interests

Writing, Thailand, Volleyball, B Horror Movies, 80s movies, A someday little Spanish villa with leezards

I'd like to meet:

Writers, film makers, musicians, artists, ... anyone creative and anyone who i can count on for some inspiration every now and then. And lately I wouldn't mind finding someone that can carry on a decent conversation about something more important than war and politics... something like the inter-connections between people and what it might mean. How about the bonds that we might all share without even knowing it. Tell me something that I already know in a way that changes my world. You've got me if you can do that.
