About Me

i'm weird. at least that's what my sister tells me. my mother decided that i'm a free spirit, a lovely bohemian-prep (i don't even know how that works) with a strange style that she can never pinpoint. i'm just me, a Christian, a writer, a dreamer, a lover, a friend, a little piece of a big puzzle. sometimes i know exactly what i want out of life, sometimes i have no clue. i fear "growing up" and decided not to, so i'm pretty much a big kid, easily amused. i still laugh when i hear "poo" or any varation of it. yeah, my sense of humor is just that juvenile at times. at 3AM, i'll laugh at anything. i have a lot of passions in life and a lot of things i want to contribute to. most of all, i just want to love people. friends, strangers, whoever. love is a great thing, something that isn't shown too much anymore, and one of the greatest gifts one person can bestow upon another.i'm currently working on a manuscript, the first of three. the working title is "moonlight and wild roses" but i'm probably going to change that to "dirge of the desert" because the other two planned books in the trilogy have musical names, so i figured that the first should have it, too. it's a science fiction type thing that involves real science *which is hilarious since i only had two semesters of anatomy and don't remember half of it*. it's an island of dr. moreau-esque piece, but it has it's own original twist. it's taken me years, but i'm finally actually getting work done. woo hoo.
