Just Me
alec as a writer - novels. screenplays. short stories. poetry.
I have one screenplay that's supposed to be made into a movie. In theory, that is/was supposed to begin this spring, but I have my doubts. Eventually, it should happen.
I have written a couple of novels, but have yet to acquire an agent or a shiny book deal.
place - washington, dc. dayton, ohio. bamako, mali.
Currently, I'm living in the greater DC area, but will be returning to Dayton in mid-June to spend time with family and friends before finally moving to West Africa for Peace Corps service
alec as person - peace corps volunteer. activist. humanitarian. dreamer. idealist. athlete.
As mentioned previously, I am a Peace Corps Volunteer. My 27 month service officially begins 7 July 2008, and I'll be going to Mali to teach English. I believe in a lot of causes, and I feel that we can each make a difference--even as individuals, we can make an impact.
I believe that people are inherently good, just sometimes misguided. Sometimes, it takes others to show us exactly how far off point we truly are. But still, we, as a people, are good and capable of amazing things. This, I believe.
I exercise. A lot. I feel that it's important to keep both the mind and body in good shape--otherwise, we lack balance. Balance is important.
