METAL! I listen constantly, I write constantly, I attend shows constantly, I interview constantly. Life revolves around metal and the art of expression. I also read voraciously and am a video game & movie nut. HUMOR also plays a huge role in both my writing and life in general. If you don't have a sense of humor, you don't belong here.For instance, if you don't find this funny, there is something seriously wrong with you!

THE MUPPETS:
You Are Animal
A complete lunatic, you're operating on 100% animal instincts.
You thrive on uncontrolled energy, and you're downright scary.
But you sure can beat a good drum.

DONALDSON'S "THE GAP" CYCLE:STEPHEN KING'S "DARK TOWER" SERIES:
ABOVE ALL: My Mother-Betty L. Davis, RIP I live my life in your honor. "You believed in movements none could see. You believed in me. A passionate spirit. Uncompromised. Boundless and open. A light in your eyes. Then immobilized. Broken. Fell at the hands of those movements that I wouldn't see, yet it was you who prayed for me. So what have I done to be son to an angel? What have I done to be worthy? This little light of mine, a gift you passed on to me, I'm gonna let it shine to guide you safely on your way. Your way home."And of course my family-my most incredible wife Clair, the keeper of my heart, and my wonderful step-daughter Taylor.
