My Interests

Best album ever is the Tiny Tim Goes Metal to the Vibes of Ringo Starr Germany Tour, subtitled: Das is Good.

Movies:

The Quiet Man, E.T., Raiders, The Bicycle Thief, Breaking Away, Goonies, Schindler's List, Braveheart, Goonies. I love flicks that give me the chills, choke me up, or give me an exploding smile.

Books:

Dickens, Faulkner, Brooks, Crichton, Brontes, Uris, Tolkien, Lewis, Irving, Bryson. I read as much as I can: books, places, history, and people are the fuel for the imagination and for storytelling.
