About Me

Transparent. Mostly. Makes people nervous.

Which is why I'm so grateful for the people that take the time to get to know me, and accept me for who I am. The wonderful friends that make up my family mean the world to me:

My Interests

Ideas, Perspectives, Creativity, Passion, Practicalities, Patterns, Conundrums.
PHOTOGRAPHY

I'd like to meet:

Haruki Murakami, Galway Kinnell, Nadine Gordimer, Cornell West, Harold Bloom, Ani Difranco, Dar Williams, Angelina Jolie, June Jordan, Lena Heady.There are a lot of dead people I would like to have known. Good thing we have books.Other than that, people who know who they are & why. That's usually a good start. ;-)

Movies:

Pi, Imagine Me & You, The House of Sand & Fog, Dopamine, Brokeback Mountain, I Heart Huckabees, Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind, High Art, Pitch Black.

Television:

I don't watch TV. Real life is all the entertainment I can handle.

Books:

Too many to count. Favorite authors of the moment: Angela Carter, Herman Hesse, Albert Camus, V.S. Naipaul, Haruki Murakami. Favorite poets: Wallace Stevens & Galway Kinnell.
