Try the BEST MySpace Editor at MySpace Toolbox !

My Interests

Writing screenplays and novels, reading, drawing, listening to music, singing, playing guitar and flute, photography, anthropology, social and peace activism, spending lots of time with my family and friends, hanging out on the Oregon coast, in the Four Corners, Santa Fe or in coffeeshops; also promoting research for Muscular Dystrophy, and training service animals, and anything to do with Speech Language Pathology.

I'd like to meet:

all of my creative friends, anyone who is concerned, honest, and willing to improve this campsite we're on.

Music:

My music tastes are eclectic (no surprise). Basically I love strong voices with original lyrics that speak truth instead of just meeting a rhyme requirement. Check out my blog or friends and you'll find many of the classics, as well as many newer voices, including many blends of traditional and contemporary such as Dan May, Jack Williams, Keb'Mo, Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, indigenous XIT, Gipsy Kings, Los Lonely Boys, James McMurtry, and The Elders for starters! If you would like for me to listen to your music just send it on over! I update my profile song and top friends frequently to feature my favorite musicians, so keep checking in!
