Shadowbrought

Often the truly sublime is found only in shadow.

About Me

My name is Jonathan Welter. I also go by James, Jim, and more commonly my friends will call me Jimmy. I am also just as commonly referred to by my "artist" name, if you will, Shadowbrought. I am fond of writing poetry and short stories. Actually, I love to write and joined Myspace in hopes of some few people finding enjoyment in my writings. So, please, feel free to read them and leave my your feedback as I post them. Thank you.

I personalized my page by using The V3.6 version of Thomas' Myspace Editor !

My Interests

Poetry, and stories. Especially those with the gothic element present. And I do love music also.

I'd like to meet:

Fellow aspiring artists. Or just anyone with a tale to tell.

Music:

I like quite a blend of things really. I usually listen to light jazz and music you might hear in a coffee shop to help inspire myself to write.

Movies:

I'm not really sure I have a favorite. I'd much rather write up my own premise than watch a movie, but movies with a personal touch of creativity I do enjoy. Especially suspensful movies. But I don't really find much time for movies in general.

Television:

Much like movies, I don't have very much time for television.

Books:

Like stated above, I like the works of Edgar Allen Poe and Richard Mattheson.

Heroes:

I'm a big fan of Edgar Allen Poe and also a lot of Richard Mattheson's work.
