About Me

Who am I? A question we often ask ourselves and try to come up with the best explanation for all of our successes; a quickie self-promotion for most, while trying to hide that tarnished side, the one that we don't want others to notice right off the bat.
I admit I have plenty of faults, but it's those same faults, added to my own personal successes, which make me who I am; an individual
Name: Mark A. France
Birthplace: Pontiac, Michigan
Job: ATM Specialist,
Filmmaker,
Writer,
Actor,
Special FX Artist,
Director
...and then there are my other jobs...
Friend,
Confidant,
Enemy,
Son,
Neighbor...
Just to name a few.
I can be your best friend or just turn my back and walk away; I can help you out when you need it or abandon you in a second; I can sit up with you all night long on the phone or just ignore your phone call; I can take my time to make sure things are perfect or I can race through it and pretend that I put my whole heart into it; I can tell you that you are the most beautiful person in the world or I can laugh in your face and tell you that you need to work on your appearance a bit... But it all depends on how YOU treat ME in the end.
I have no problem being your friend, helping you out, sitting up talking to you on the phone, taking my time to make sure things are done to the best of my ability. I usually make the first move, say the first thing or prolong a heartfelt conversation, but it is YOU who will make the difference in the end, because it is YOU who will complete the circle or shatter it completely.
Do YOU have what it takes to be a friend? If you feel confidant enough, then that is where we will start.
